The Lion King was one of my favorite Disney movies growing up and I still love it as an adult. It came out in 1994 and was a huge hit. You’re going to love reading these Lion King movie quotes.
Some of the characters in this movie are Simba, Nala, King Mufasa, Scar, Timon, Pumbaa, Rafiki, Zazu, Banzai, and Shenzi. There are also some scary hyenas in the movie.
Matthew Broderick is the voice of Simba and James Earl Jones is the voice of Mufasa.
The main character is Simba. His dad, Mufasa, is King of the Pride Lands and Simba is next in line to be King. Simba’s Uncle Scar kills Mufasa so he can become the next king and he makes Simba think that it was his fault.
Simba runs away from the Pride Lands and grows up with Timon and Pumbaa. Nala finds him one day and tells him he must come back and save the Pride Lands because Scar has destroyed them.
Simba eventually goes back and becomes king like he was supposed to.
This movie has awesome quotes and also songs. Some of my favorites are Hakuna Matata and I Just Can’t Wait To Be King.
You’ll find quotes that are inspirational, funny, and Lion King love quotes.
