My Lion King Forum

- This may or may not retconn TLK2

- Kiara is a cub again

- The hyenas seem like they want to go on a killing spree if that's what they meant by "getting rid of all the animals they can". That or being the usual Disney, they meant chasing them out of the pridelands.

- This'll be like the Avengers: Lion king style.

- There will be a soundtrack to purchase

- Merchandise and books will be available

- Scar may or may not be mentioned in the movie/show (i hope they will though)

- No outlanders besides the hyenas

- No Kovu, no Vitani

- Simba's newer, deeper voice is most likely because he's a little older now

- Animation seems 2.5D, meaning 2D but with some 3D elements mixed in

- Ernie Sabella is reprising his role as Pumbaa (woot!)

- Timon still sounds like timon, even if he now has a different actor

- There will be songs like the other movies of course


Feel free to add anything else i might have missed. Still looking forward to the movie and the show.

Scar will be mentioned he is part of the backstory and during a pre recording session some time back it was mentioned that Kion was talking about Scar and how he didn't want to end up like him so the backstory should be revealed maybe not in the tv movie but season one is pretty likely.

Good Points I would only add three things.

Actually this will retcon Lion King 2. We just don't know to what extent yet.

[quote="KionofTheLionGuard"]- No Kovu, no Vitani[/quote]

I would add for now. As said before we don't how extensive the retcon will be

[quote="KionofTheLionGuard"]- Timon still sounds like timon, even if he now has a different actor[/quote]

That is because Kevin Schon voiced Timon in Timon and Pumbaa Season 2 and 3.

One thing im already noticing is that they have made the eye brows for almost every character too thick, Simbas doesn't need to be that thick

Well, it doesn't really look that bad. Just like what i said in a previous thread about you mentioning Fuli's design, it could have been worse.

Nala looks fine though , and of course i too, look cool. (I wish there were emotes for Kion)

We don't know for a fact that the hyenas will be the only outlanders, nor do we know for certain that Kovu and Vitani are definitely not going to appear. It's highly likely these things are true, but we do not know them as fact.

And as someone else mentioned, we know there will be mention of Scar as they have expressed that he was the last leader of the Lion Guard and Kion doesn't want to be like him.
