“They were all collaborating with her and helping to bring this new piece of music into a film where there’s already a very established musical personality to the piece,” he said of Beyoncé, who voices Nala.
“So it was nice of them to have them working with her to allow the new song to feel organically a part of the new production,” Favreau said, adding that the star’s character will be a bigger role in the live-action adaptation.
