The story is narrated by Rafiki, the wise mandrill shaman, to Mufasa’s granddaughter Kiara in the present.Kelvin Harrison Jr. also stars as Taka, the young lion who will later be known as Scar. Donald Glover, Beyoncé, John Kani, Billy Eichner, and Seth Rogen reprise their roles as Simba, Nala, Rafiki, Timon, and Pumbaa from the 2019 remake. Mads Mikkelsen, Thandiwe Newton, Anika Noni Rose, Lennie James, and Keith David play new characters, and Beyoncé’s daughter Blue Ivy Carter will play Kiara.The film will be released on December 20, 2024.Previews: Teaser | |

Unrelated in the Adaptation | |
| Mufasa: The Lion King / int_3de32c52 | comment |
Unrelated in the Adaptation: The trailer has Rafiki reveal that Mufasa was not actually born into the Pridelands' royal family and was an orphaned cub who somehow found his way there, when all other media in the franchise has never said otherwise. | |

Call-Forward | |
| Mufasa: The Lion King / int_e3c36782 | comment |
Call-Forward: The trailer has Rafiki say the story starts beyond the "shadows" and the "light", recalling Mufasa’s famous monologue about the Lion King being responsible for "everything the light touches" and the "shadows" being beyond their borders. In the 2019 remake, Rafiki refers to his bakorra staff (which he only wields in the climax) as "old friend", implying he used it more in his youth. Sure enough, the trailer shows his younger self regularly wielding it. Many fireflies are shown circling a tree that Rafiki and at least two other mandrills are in during the trailer, and one is in his hand before flying up. In the 2019 remake, fireflies had some sort of mystical property that alerted Rafiki to the bugs on his tree helping form the portrait of Simba. The trailer shows Mufasa contending with a dangerous stampede of elephants by a canyon wall. In the 2019 remake, the wildebeest stampede engineered by Scar in the gorge will claim his life. Zazu is also shown flying about the chaos as he later will when he tries to scout for Simba ahead of Mufasa. The very first shot of young Mufasa in the trailer even shows a large gorge in the background to allude to his eventual fate. The trailer shows Mufasa looking up to the stars in a shot-for-shot recreation of the shot of Simba doing the same in the 2019 remake shortly before his tuft of mane began its journey to Rafiki’s tree. | |
