Not expecting much, as live-action CGI lions are completely devoid of the magic Disney has long been known for, but hey, at least they're building on the canon for once.
The whole movie is apparently Rafiki telling Kiara about her grandfather, whom she never met.
A few things that stood out to me:
- Same director as the 2019 remake: meh
- Hans Zimmer: always good
- no Lebo M, unless Zimmer pulls him in again
- Seth Rogan as Pumbaa: should be good
- Kelvin Harrison Jr. as Scar: not british
- no James Earl Jones
