On July 19, 2019, the new live-action/CGI version of Disney’s The Lion King will hit theaters to likely huge numbers. This weekend, guests can get an early jump on all the fun by seeing two stars of the new movie appearing inside of Magic Kingdom.
On Saturday, July 13, 2019, JD McCrary (voice of young Simba) and Shahadi Wright Joseph (voice of young Nala) are going to be a part of the Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade. The actors will be Grand Marshals in the parade which will step off around 3 p.m.
The official synopsis for Disney’s live-action remake of The Lion King:
“From Disney Live Action, director Jon Favreau’s all-new “The Lion King” journeys to the African savanna where a future king is born. Simba idolizes his father, King Mufasa, and takes to heart his own royal destiny. But not everyone in the kingdom celebrates the new cub’s arrival. Scar, Mufasa’s brother—and former heir to the throne—has plans of his own. The battle for Pride Rock is ravaged with betrayal, tragedy and drama, ultimately resulting in Simba’s exile. With help from a curious pair of newfound friends, Simba will have to figure out how to grow up and take back what is rightfully his. The all-star cast includes Donald Glover as Simba, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter as Nala, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Scar, James Earl Jones as Mufasa, Billy Eichner as Timon and Seth Rogen as Pumbaa. Utilizing pioneering filmmaking techniques to bring treasured characters to life in a whole new way, “The Lion King” roars into theaters on July 19, 2019.”
