The “Lion King” prequel arrived to weak ticket sales last month, but moviegoers have since embraced it, pushing global box office returns toward $700 million.

The Lion King is a top 10 hit on one Billboard chart, and it's come very close to reaching the Hot 100 this week.

While it looked like 'One of Them Days' would prevail at the holiday weekend box office, Disney's 'Mufasa: The Lion King' ended up reigning over the competition.

The Lion King was satisfying, there are one or two things which we didn't see from the film's main protagonist.

Per Deadline, Mufasa: The Lion King is projected to earn $11.5 million through Sunday and $15.5 million through the four-day MLK holiday weekend. If the estimate holds it will boost Mufasa’s running domestic tally to $209.7 million since its Dec. 20, 2024, opening.

Despite having completed a full month in theaters worldwide, Disney's Mufasa: The Lion King appears to have some life left. The big-budget film topped the domestic box office charts for the second time in its run this weekend,

Mufasa: The Lion King’s weekend actuals came in higher, and with that, the movie regained its crown at the domestic box office. Despite a slower start, the movie has a powerful hold at the box office and is leading the race against Sonic the Hedgehog 3 at the worldwide box office. Scroll below for the deets.

If that's the case for Mufasa: The Lion King, it should be available to buy digitally from mid-to-late February 2025. You won't be able to rent it initially, but should be able to from the time it arrives on Disney+. While we wait for its streaming and digital release, Mufasa: The Lion King is only available to watch in cinemas.
