Talk about Iconic!

Disney just released a brand new teaser trailer for the remake of The Lion King on Monday, and we get to hear Beyoncé as Nala for the first time.

In this clip, Nala urges Simba (played by Donald Glover) to come home and claim his spot as king of the Pride Lands.

This clip also features Timon and Pumbaa (played by Billy Eichner and Seth Rogen), and the iconic scene with Simba and Scar (played by Chiwetel Ejiofor) in the Pride Rock Battle.

The Lion King is set to release on July 19th right after the 25th anniversary of the original 1994 classic.

Check out what fans had to say about the songstress on Twitter. It looks like she’s going to be a great addition to this film!
