The goosebump-inducing minute-long trailer returns viewers to Pride Rock, and shows the African savanna's various inhabitants prepare to welcome their adorable future king — Simba.

Directed by Jon Favreau, this live-action adaptation boasts a fantastic cast — Simba is voiced by Donald Glover, Pumbaa by Seth Rogen, Scar by Chiwetel Ejiofor, Nala by Beyoncé, and Azizi by Eric André.
