Kim Kardashian’s daughter, North West, is about to make her big screen debut in a Disney production. The 10-year-old will join a star-studded cast for a live performance of The Lion King at the Hollywood Bowl. This special performance, celebrating the film’s 30th anniversary, will be filmed in two parts and released on Disney+’s streaming platform. North will share the stage with renowned actors such as Jennifer Hudson, Jeremy Irons, Nathan Lane, Billy Eichner, Ernie Sabella, Jason Weaver, and Bradley Gibson. Broadway favorites Heather Headley and Lebo M will also be part of this exciting performance.
North has already had a significant role in the entertainment industry, having previously lent her voice to the character of Mini in the 2023 film PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie. In this star-studded live performance, North will showcase her acting skills alongside talented stars like Taraji P Henson, Kristen Bell, and James Marsden. The live performances are scheduled for May 24 and May 25 in Los Angeles. Although there is no confirmed release date for the recording, Disney+ subscribers can look forward to an engaging streaming experience.
This special event at the Hollywood Bowl will bring together a talented ensemble to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the beloved animated film, which was originally released by Disney in 1994. The Lion King has become a cherished childhood classic and has inspired various adaptations, including a Tony Award-winning Broadway musical in 1998 and a live-action film in 2019. The celebration at the Hollywood Bowl will feature a full orchestra and include original pieces from the Broadway show, as well as iconic musical numbers, set designs, costumes, and puppetry.
Fans will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the magic of Han Zimmer’s original score, which includes timeless hits like “Can You Feel The Love Tonight,” “Circle of Life,” and “Hakuna Matata.” This 30-year celebration sets the stage for the highly anticipated prequel, Mufasa: The Lion King, which is set to release later this year.
