    The Lion King (2019 film)

    The Lion King is a 2019 American musical drama film directed and produced by Jon Favreau,
    written by Jeff Nathanson, and produced by Walt Disney Pictures. It is a photorealistic computer-
    animated remake of Disney's traditionally animated 1994 film of the same name. The film stars the
    voices of Donald Glover, Seth Rogen, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Alfre Woodard, Billy Eichner, John
    Kani, John Oliver, Florence Kasumba, Eric Andre, Keegan-Michael Key, JD McCrary, Shahadi
    Wright Joseph, and Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, as well as James Earl Jones reprising his role from the
    original film. The plot follows Simba, a young lion who must embrace his role as the rightful king of
    his native land following the murder of his father, Mufasa, at the hands of his uncle, Scar.
    Plans for a remake of 1994's The Lion King were confirmed in September 2016 following box office
    successes for Disney remakes such as The Jungle Book (2016), which was also directed by Favreau.
    Favreau was inspired by certain roles of characters in the Broadway adaptation, and developed
    upon elements of the original film's story. Much of the main cast signed in early 2017, and principal
    photography began in mid-2017 on a blue screen stage in Los Angeles. The "virtual-reality tools"
    utilized in The Jungle Book's cinematography were used to a greater degree during filming of The
    Lion King. Composers Hans Zimmer, Elton John, and lyricist Tim Rice, all of whom worked on the
    original's soundtrack, returned to compose the score alongside Knowles-Carter, who assisted John
    in the reworking of the soundtrack and wrote a new song for the film, titled "Spirit", which she also
    performed. The film serves as the final credit for editor Mark Livolsi, and it is dedicated to his
    memory. With an estimated budget of around $260 million, it is one of the most expensive films ever
    made.
    The film was theatrically released in the United States on July 19, 2019. It has grossed over
    $1.6 billion worldwide. Despite it not being advertised as an animated film, it surpassed Frozen to
    become the highest-grossing animated film of all-time. It is also the second highest-grossing film of
    2019, and the seventh-highest of all-time. The film received mixed reviews from critics, with praise
    for its visual effects, music, and vocal performances (particularly Rogen and Eichner), but criticism
    for its lack of originality, and facial emotion on the characters. [6] The film received nominations for
    Best Animated Feature Film and Original Song categories at the 77th Golden Globe
    Awards[7] and 25th Critics' Choice Awards. It was also nominated at 73rd British Academy Film
    Awards and 92nd Academy Awards,[8] both for visual effects.
