Just when you thought your week can't get any better, the first look at the live-action remake of The Lion King dropped online.
The teaser trailer gives us a glimpse of the animals of the Pride Lands, Simba as a young cub, the stampede scene and that iconic scene where Simba is being presented to everyone by Rafiki.
We also hear James Earl Jones' voice as Mufasa narrating a few lines he made famous in the original 1994 animated film, "Everything the light touches is our kingdom. But a king's time as ruler rises and falls like the sun. One day, the sun will set on my time here and will rise with you as the new king."
