The Big Picture It’s been 30 years to this day since Disney’s animated epic The Lion King made its sweeping debut in theaters, becoming the highest-grossing traditionally animated film of all time, and remaining an enduring classic for generations of fans. To celebrate the anniversary of the beloved animated classic, the official Disney X account has revealed a brand-new video embracing the enduring multi-generational legacy of the film.
However, the celebration doesn’t end there, as the video concludes with footage from the highly anticipated live-action prequel titled Mufasa: The Lion King. Utilizing the same photorealistic CGI as its 2019 counterpart, the film will center on the origins of the titular King of Pride Rock. The film is slated to debut in theaters this winter, and with the original film celebrating its 30th anniversary, there’s no better time to embrace a new story for the beloved Disney franchise.
The Lion King returns to theaters on July 12. Check out the brand-new celebration video for the film.
