The fog around the movie world is bigger than ever, but Disney continues to make plans for the future.

Tonight, the American media announces that the studios are preparing a sequel to "The Lion King," which was released a little over a year ago and was a remake of the modern classics from the 1990s, this time not in animation but with the help of innovative technology.

The reviews were like that, but the new "Lion King" put in over $ 1.6 billion in world box office, so apparently the pledge would have been called for.

And the really interesting news: the person who will direct the film is none other than Barry Jenkins, who was signed to the Oscar-winning "Moonlight" and also to "The Story of Bill Street," and is more identified with indie, quality, minor and artistic cinema.

It rarely happens that a director with such a resume is matched to a project like "The Lion King 2", so this is a very intriguing combination.

Unlike John Fabro, who directed "The Lion King," Jenkins is black, so it will also be interesting to see his point of view on the African story.

According to the report on the Deadline website, the plot this time will deal with the characters' past, led by Mufasa.

It is unclear who else will star in the film and when it will be possible to start working on it, but it has been said that it is a top Disney priority.
