'The Lion King' Roars Back To Life On The Red Carpet
Marena Bronson
Blockbuster season is well underway, and one of the most anticipated movies of the summer is the live-action reboot of The Lion King. The star-studded cast hit the red carpet in Hollywood for the world premiere. Donald Glover (Simba), Seth Rogan (Pumbaa), Alfre Woodard (Sarabi) all rocked dramatic looks on a carpet full of colorful prints and patterns. But it was Beyoncé who stole the show.
The superstar, who voices the role of Nala, walked the red carpet with her daughter Blue Ivy both wearing custom looks from Alexander McQueen. Talk about making an entrance!
The Sarah Burton-designed tuxedo dress was covered in dégradé crystal and gilded embellishments. ALL of the sparkle! Keep going for pictures of the cast’s red carpet looks. Do you have a favorite? Let us know in the comments below. The Lion King roars into theaters July 19,
