Chiwetel Ejiofor as Scar and Beyonce?


WTF?

Beyonce is Nala right?

I kind of liked Jon Favreau's Jungle Book, so I'm actually not too apprehensive about this movie. I'm still not sure if there will be singing but if Jungle Book had some of it, I'm sure Lion King will have a lot more. You can't ignore a famous soundtrack like that.

They told Chiwee he's too handsome to play Chewie in Star Wars so he's doing this instead

When I first learn the new cast of th the Lion king I thought the only excuse to replace Jeremy irons with someone else, would have been if the cast was entirely Afro-American but that was not the case... why replace the voice of one of thr best villain ever made?! No excuse... said so I’m definitely going to watch it.

Jeremy Irons might not have wanted to do it again. It would also be pointless if the movie kept just adding the old cast members. Let's give someone else a chance to give an iconic villain voice.

I can see the complaints now from teabaggers not wanting Illuminati gang signs shoved down their throats.
