Leijonakuninkaan esiosa keskittyy Mufasan valtaannousuun

Mufasa jäi monelle lapselle mieleen elokuvasta Leijonakuningas silloin joskus. Nyt sitten luvassa on ihmisten näyttelemää esiosaa. Mufasa: The Lion King on tulossa, ja pääosassa nähdään Aaron Pierre. Näyttelijä kertoi enemmän Colliderille todeten, että esiosassa uudet tuulet puhaltavat.

"Well, first and foremost, I want to acknowledge that James Earl Jones is an enormous inspiration of mine. I feel very honoured to be walking into this role after him. I think the key difference will be that here we're exploring Mufasa in a different capacity. When Sir James Earl Jones portrayed him, this is Mufasa in his full capacity, in his rhythm, and I think here we're exploring Mufasa prior to that point. What does this young lion look like before he is who we know him as, and he is discovering his rhythm, how he conducts himself, how he engages with his community and his loved ones? So, I think that's the key thing. It's figuring it out."

Jäämme siis odottamaan, miltä Mufasa kuulostaa ilman James Earl Jonesia eli Darth Vaderin ääntä.
