UPDATED NOV 23, 2018

It certainly is the circle of life to see one of your favorite movies from childhood get reimagined with a host of new technologies and form of storytelling. The latest in the list of Disney movies to get a millennial revamp is Jon Favreau’s ‘The Lion King’ set for release on July 19, 2019.  The first teaser trailer for the widely awaited movie was released by Walt Disney Pictures on Thanksgiving and we immediately realized what we are thankful for this year – the gift of nostalgia. The beauty of Favreau’s computer-animation films, which we saw in the 2016 ‘The Jungle Book’ adaptation as well, is in the simple yet and realistic depiction of wildlife that transports you into that world.
