Disney's The Lion King is an animated film first released to the public on June 24, 1994. Winning two Academy Awards for the music and a Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture, The Lion King continues to be a classic film for children and adults alike. The story follows a young lion cub, Simba, and his life through adulthood. The movie is set in the Pride Lands of Africa, where lions rule the kingdom. A key transition moment to the second half of the film is marked by the song "Hakuna Matata" which accompanies a montage of Simba following the ways of his newfound friends Timon and Pumbaa as he grows into young adulthood.
The third release in the APMEXclusive® Disney The Lion King series features an officially licensed image from the "Hakuna Matata" musical montage. Simba, Pumbaa and Timon are framed against a full moon as Simba transitions to young adulthood.
