“Mufasa: The Lion King” is coming home.
The Barry Jenkins-directed epic, which serves as both a prequel and sequel to 2019’s reimagined “The Lion King,” will debut on Disney+ March 26. This confirms Disney Entertainment co-chairman Dana Walden’s comments last week that the film would be available “later in March.” Now we know! Watch a new spot below:
“Mufasa” was Disney’s big movie this past Christmas, premiering it in theaters on Dec. 20. The film stars Aaron Pierre, Kelvin Harrison Jr, Seth Rogen, Billy Eichner, Tiffany Bone, Donald Glover, Mads Mikkelsen, Thandiwe Newton, Anika Noni Rose, Blue Ivy Carter and Beyoncé Knowles-Carter. It was written by Jeff Nathanson, who wrote the 2019 “Lion King” for Jon Favreau. It featured brand-new songs from Lin-Manuel Miranda, several of which went appropriately viral, and a score by Dave Metzger.

The musical extravaganza took place at the Hollywood Bowl last May and features stars from both the screen and stage properties.
Thirty years later, “The Lion King” is still the leader of the pride and the pride of Disney. The animated film, which debuted in 1994, still ranks as the highest-grossing traditionally animated movie of all time and has not only inspired multiple sequels but also a Tony Award-winning musical that is still on the Broadway boards, multiple live-action films, and decades of love.
Last May, stars of the films and musical came together at the Hollywood Bowl for a musical extravaganza worthy of the film. Still, if you couldn’t make it to Los Angeles last spring, hakuna matata: on Feb. 7, watch the premiere of the concert film “The Lion King at the Hollywood Bowl” exclusively on Disney+. Watch the celebration beginning Friday with a subscription to Disney+!

Along with ongoing episodes of “Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man,” Disney+ will debut all of “Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur” Season 2 and plenty of other great titles for young viewers. “The Lion King at the Hollywood Bowl” special will recapture the magic of a live performance, and “Harlem Ice” follows a girls’ figure skating team through their competitive season.
Hulu will feature ongoing episodes of the new drama “Paradise,” and if you want more White House action there’s Viacom’s “The Oval,...
