Ever since the movie was announced, fans were skeptical of seeing a legendary story like Mufasa in the modern format. This skepticism is justified, as we’ve seen several modern adaptations of legendary movies from Disney failing to meet fans’ expectations (Yes, we are looking at you, Alladin.) Regardless, it’s impossible to know how the Mufasa movie will turn out when it actually releases, but let’s just say that the trailer looks incredible.
Each frame of Mufasa: The Lion King is pure bliss. The cinematography looks incredible, the voice acting seems engaging, and, of course, the music is captivating enough to make you want to watch the trailer again and again.
In the trailer, we can see Timon and Pumbaa discussing the beginning of Mufasa’s journey – The one who “isn’t stray” and is “simply lost.” We see Taka (Scar) stumble upon Mufasa, an orphan who is struggling to swim. Taka is meant to be the future king, and he wants only one thing – to have Mufasa by his side.
Later in the trailer, we see Mufasa and Taka traveling to different locations, which also includes a snowy mountain peak. They jump off a cliff, run alongside Rhinos, and fight a dangerous Pride. They do it all in the trailer, and we can’t wait to experience that in the theatres.
