The Lion King 3D: Sneak Peek

Simba, Mufasa, Nala, Timon and Pumbaa are back and better than ever this December when Disney’s “The Lion King” roars into Philippine theaters in 3D. When “The Lion King” first came out in 1994, the story of Simba and his father touched the hearts of an entire generation. Not only that, its pioneering soundtrack, unexpected humor and compelling characters makes this one of the best Disney films ever created. The film, with “The Little Mermaid” and “Beauty and the Beast,” propelled The Walt Disney Studios’ animation renaissance, becoming the highest-grossing animated film of all time and still continues to be the highest-grossing hand-drawn animated film ever in the States. Now, "The Lion King" is back with a planned two-week wide domestic release. “The Lion King” follows Simba, the feisty lion cub who “just can't wait to be king”. But his envious Uncle Scar has plans for his own ascent to the throne and he forces Simba's exile from the kingdom. Alone and adrift, Simba soon joins the escapades of a meerkat named Timon and his warthog pal, Pumbaa. Adopting their carefree lifestyle of “Hakuna Matata”, Simba ignores his real responsibilities until he realizes his destiny and returns to the Pride Lands to claim his place in the “Circle of Life”. Catch the trailer of "The Lion King 3D" after the break.






“The Lion King 3D” is distributed locally by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures International through Columbia Pictures.
