The Lion King Trailer 2

Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures has released the second movie trailer of The Lion King (2019). The first The Lion King movie trailer can be viewed here. From the contents of this full trailer for The Lion King, it looks like Disney has another hit on its hands. Loved the introduction of (spoilers) Scar and his hyena thralls. The CGI looks good, both the animated characters and the environment that they interact in.

The Lion King‘s plot synopsis: “From Disney Live Action, director Jon Favreau’s all-new “The Lion King” journeys to the African savanna where a future king must overcome betrayal and tragedy to assume his rightful place on Pride Rock.”
