A core memory for some of us in the Lion King movie was when Mufasa fell to his death. That scene was “enough to make a grown man cry.” 

We knew how Simba grew up to become king in the first movie. We got the backstory of Pumba and Timon in Lion King 1 1⁄2, but we didn’t know anything about Mufasa’s past. That’s about to change with the release of ‘Mufasa: The Lion King’. Keep reading to know when it will be released in theaters. 

Fans of Sonic, Knuckles and Tails, you also have something to look forward to as the third installment in the franchise will be coming your way next month.

P.S: There’s an additional character to the franchise and you wouldn’t believe who it is. Keep reading to find out.

In the 10th edition of this series, we bring to you 5 movies in December 2024 worth anticipating. Sprays confetti 🎊 🎉
