Disney’s Lion King Prequel Can Beat 2019’s $1.6 Billion Hit In 1 Pivotal Way

Disney’s 2019 live-action adaptation of The Lion King was a box office sensation, but the upcoming prequel Mufasa: The Lion King can outshine it in one specific way. The most successful of Disney’s live-action adaptations, The Lion King grossed $1.6 billion in theaters despite criticism for lacking heart or originality. While some claimed it was a nearly shot-for-shot remake of the original film, there were 30 extra minutes than the original, and a revamped soundtrack that showed deference to the original while still introducing new songs.
