MUFASA The Lion King

Jenkins' final sentence makes a distinction between past and present in the movie, hinting that some scenes in Mufasa will take place around the same time as The Lion King. With the number of Lion King characters that could return in Mufasa, such as Mufasa's mate Sarabi or his royal advisor Zazu, it would make sense to construct the film around characters who knew Mufasa telling the story of his life. In addition to suggesting the film's structure, Jenkins also teases "wonderful musical numbers" throughout
