An official statement from Mufasa : The Lion King 

Mufasa: The Lion King, the anticipated sequel to The Lion King, was originally supposed to debut in theatres on July 5, the year 2024, but it will instead debut on December 20, 2024. The 2019 real-life characters version of Mufasa: The Lion King, an illustrated feature, will include an earlier instalment in the upcoming movie. The main focus of the movie will be the lead protagonist and his promotion to the position of group leader.

Kelvin Harrison Jr. will do the voiceover for Scar, while Aaron Pierre is going to provide the voiceover for the youthful Mufasa. Seth Rogen, Billy Eichner, and John Kani, who play Pumbaa, Tomon, and Rafiki, respectively, are all included in the casting. Playwright Jeff Nathanson, who wrote a movie script for the 2019 computer-generated version of The Lion King, is back to write the draft for Mufasa: The Lion King. On the film, Nathanson will also work as an executive producer. The director of the film is Barry Jenkins.

In an interview with Collider magazine, Pierre—who will be providing Mufasa’s voice in the planned Lion King prequel—gave some information on the computer-animated picture, which is scheduled for premiere in December 2024. “Well, let me start by saying that James Earl Jones has been an enormous source of encouragement to me,” Pierre had stated. 

The main distinction, in my opinion, will be the fact that we’re investigating Mufasa in an alternate manner here. This is Mufasa in his entirety and in his musical style as represented by Sir James Earl Jones, and I believe we are studying him here before that. 

What does this tiny lion seem like when he develops into the person we perceive him to be, before he finds a rhythm and learns how to interact with other individuals and his community? That, I believe, is the crucial element. It’s working things out.
