In the trailer, viewers are taken through the scenic African landscape and shown a majesty of animals awaiting the birth of the newborn king.
One can see the detail of fur on the cub and the colorfully bushy mane of a baboon. As numerous people online attest, the CGI animation looks almost too realistic.
While anticipation is high, don’t get too excited just yet. The newly released trailer comes way in advance of its debut: The Lion King won’t hit theaters until July 19, 2019.
