The live-action remake of The Lion King [1] comes out this month, and we're officially counting down the days until we see our favourite characters on the big screen again. Ahead of the anticipated release, Disney shared a stunning look at the new cast [2] with their animal counterparts. Donald Glover has a stare-down with Simba, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter comes face-to-face with Nala [3], and John Oliver, Seth Rogen [4], and Billy Eichner smile at their lovable characters, Zazu, Pumbaa, and Timon. Honestly, between the extravagant trailers [5] and the official stills from the film [6], we have a good feeling this remake is going to make us just as emotional as the original.
