If you loved The Jungle Book, try The Lion King

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Jon Favreau, and they sit in Adventure / Family territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Jungle Book, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Lion King is

Savannah, sunrise, a cub's roar. A king's pride, a brother's envy, a throne at stake. Favreau reimagines a Disney classic with photorealism.
