Now, Favreau has shared a behind-the-scenes photo from the set, showing that things are moving right along on The Lion King, as Donald Glover is currently in the studio getting to work as Simba.
Disney looks to continue that streak with The Lion King, which is set to arrive in theaters on July 19, 2019.
Disney announced the full cast for the movie last month, which includes Donald Glover as Simba.
Jon Favreau is currently hard at work getting Disney’s live-action version of The Lion King ready to go for summer 2019.
