'Mufasa' Box Office: 'Lion King' Prequel Scores $122 Million Globally
VarietyStory by Rebecca Rubin
scrn logline
Disney's 'Mufasa' prequel roars to $122M global debut, but falls short of live-action 'Lion King' hype
beat sheet
- The photorealistic 'Mufasa' prequel scored $87.2M overseas and $122M worldwide, not quite matching the rapturous reception of the 2019 'Lion King' remake
- Despite the nostalgia factor, 'Mufasa' lacked the bite of Disney's previous live-action adaptations, signaling audiences may be growing weary of the studio's endless remakes
