Since we’ve only had a short theatrical teaser trailer and a Super Bowl spot for the movie, fans were excited to finally get a good solid look at some brand spankin’ new footage.

‘The Lion King’ Character Posters Sure Look Like Pictures Of Animals By Hoai-Tran Bui/May 30, 2019 5:00 pm EST Oh yes, it’s a lion. That’s not just the translation of the opening Zulu lyrics from “The Circle of Life,” but that’s really the only reaction you can have to new The Lion King character posters recently released by Disney.
