The Lion King remake casts Donald Glover as Simba
Quote:
Director Jon Favreau has announced that Community actor and Childish Gambino rapper Donald Glover will be taking the role of Simba in the upcoming remake of The Lion King.
Alongside the Simba news, it was also revealed that James Earl Jones will be returning to his role as Mufasa, the ill-fated fatherly figure that he played in the 1994 original.
As reported in The Hollywood Reporter, Favreau first met Glover back in December, when Favreau informed Glover that he was aware of his work because his son listens to the star's rap music.
Favreau is coming hot off the heels of bringing a live-action remake of The Jungle Book to cinema screens last year, and despite The Lion King not itself being a live-action flick, it comes close to the idea.
