Mzansi’s fave at The Lion King’s premiere – Photos

The Lion King was premiered in SA on Thursday night and some celebrities graced the red carpet in different outfit.

John Kani and his wife, as well as Lebo M and his family were on the red carpet looking like the superstars they are.

The much-anticipated remake of The Lion King, which will release worldwide on Friday, features Donald Glover as Simba, Beyoncé as Nala, John Kani as Rafiki and James Earl Jones returning as the voice of Mufasa.

Mzansi is extremely proud of the representation it has in the film and there is so much excitement in the air with Beyoncé’s curated album, The Gift, featuring our very own Moonchild Sanelly and Busiswa!
