The Lion King has officially made its world premiere!
Although the rest of the world will have to wait to see the movie on the big screen on 19 July, Disney held its super exclusive and star star-studded world premiere in Hollywood last night.
The cast and other celebs – who mostly donned animal prints – strutted the red carpet at Disney’s biggest event of the year.
Beyoncé, Donald Glover, Seth Rogen and even SA’s own Lebo M and John Kani led the way for cast, whilst other stars including Meghan Trainor, Tiffany Haddish, Raven Symone, Normani, Yara Shahidi, Chance The Rapper and more showed their support.
