Hold up! A huge announcement!

Maybe this fall, I will publish something else instead for the re-release of The Lion King Reborn. This doesn't mean its the "special edition" of the original film, but it is a reboot of a film I have made. Kion and the Lion Guard will be included along with the other returning characters who appeared in the original film, though the Guard's absent in The Lion King II: Simba's Pride will also be included.

This will be once again directed by Roger Allers, Rob Minkoff, and as well as Jon Favreau from the live-action remake. Much of the voice cast is expecting to reprise their roles, while new additions include Khary Payton, Gabrielle Union, Eden Riegel, Nika Futterman, Joshua Rush, Diamond White and Max Charles, whom all reprise the voices of Rafiki, Nala, Kiara, Zira, Bunga, Fuli and Kion from The Lion Guard. Payton and Futterman replace the late Robert Guillaume and Suzanne Pleshette, and Edward Hibbert will replace Rowan Atkinson as Zazu since he has voiced the character in The Lion King's Timon & Pumbaa, The Lion King II: Simba's Pride and The Lion King 1½. Penny Johnson Jerald, Keegan-Michael Key and Eric Andre return to voice Serafina, Kamari and Azizi from the 2019 live-action remake. The two hyenas replace Banzai and Ed from the original TLKR, respectively.

The film's additional score composed by Christopher Willis, the composer of The Lion Guard. This means Willis is using Zimmer's musical note of "This Land" from the original 1994 film to create a new hybrid theme (as heard at the opening of Return of the Roar). Several songs from the television series will also be included. The two composers will also write a new theme for the opening Disney logo as seen in the 2019 version, and songs written by Beau Black, Tim Rice and Elton John will be remastered. Brown Lindiwe Mkhize will replace Carmen Twillie as the singer for the "Circle of Life" and Beyonce will return to perform "Spirit".

There will also be a much more bigger final battle in the Outlands. Which means everyone is here: Simba, Nala, Kiara, Zuri, Tiifu, Timon, Pumbaa, Rafiki, Zazu, the Lion Guard, Anga, Makini, Ma Tembo, her herd, Mbeya, his crash, Laini, her troop, Bupu, his herd, Makuu, his float, Jasiri, her clan, Janja, his clan, Timon's Ma, Shujaa, Hadithi, Mwenzi, and the rest of the Pride Landers are on approach to a final showdown against Scar's spirtit and his army of Outlanders.

I hope I get to hear back from you soon!
