The major question will be how interested fans will be in theLion Kinglive-action prequelstory.
The highly anticipated movie will hope to continue the trend of its acclaimed director, Barry Jenkins.
Jenkins has had an impressive career as a director and producer.
His works often revolve around themes of black identity, parenting, and friendships.
Looking at Jenkins' body of work,Mufasashould become a critical success.
Each of his films as a director has garnered a score of at least 85% on Rotten Tomatoes.
His works in television have also achieved similar numbers.
He has also written all of the films he previously directed, which was not the case forMufasa.
There is also a disadvantage to this, which could prevent the movie from becoming fresh.
Mufasa: The Lion King explores the origins of the beloved character Mufasa, focusing on his youth as a lost cub who encounters Taka, a royal heir. Their meeting initiates an epic journey of self-discovery and destiny, featuring a group of misfit companions navigating the challenges of their world.
Weary attitudes towardsThe Lion Kingprequels have forcedJenkins to defend the Mufasa prequel from criticism.
