Jeremy Irons (Scar), Nathan Lane (Timon), Ernie Sabella (Pumba), and Jason Weaver (Young Simba) will join Billy Eichner, who played Timon in the 2019 live-action remake.
Kim was sure to re-share the Good Morning America announcement on her story, commenting beneath "my baby!!!!" to show her pride as a mother. She then reshared the poster for the performance, featuring North's picture at the bottom, to advertise the 30-year anniversary occasion.

This original special will stream at a later date, but it's expected to include performances of the soundtrack including "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" and "Hakuna Matata" with a full orchestra.
North has been making moves musically, as she featured on her father's Vultures record on the track "Talking / Once Again" with Ty Dolla $ign. Back in March, attending the listening party for the controversial rapper's Vultures 2 album, she revealed that she was working on an album.

North made it clear she planned on becoming a rapper when she was interviewed by i-D magazine back in 2023. She said she wants to be: "A basketball player, a rapper, um... Well, when I was seven, I wanted to be a boxer. But now I don’t want to be a boxer. I’m going to do art on the side."
Kim has not kept quiet about her daughter's talents, as she revealed that North is particularly "skilled at special effects makeup", adding: "I love that this is what she is into right now."
