I had left 'Ragtime' - and 'Ragtime' was a completely different beast, no pun intended, than 'The Lion King'.
If you look at it, 'The Lion King' is very similar to 'Hamlet.'
I always cry when Mufasa dies in 'The Lion King.' I just can't handle it.
I don't think they're going to pay me to play Mufasa.
The Lion King always makes me cry, especially when Simba's father gets trampled.
Disney movies are a great outing for the entire family, and my children are huge fans of their classics, especially 'The Lion King.'
Well, you know, I played Mufasa in the workshop of The Lion King.
I got to know Elton John's older music by learning to like his newer stuff. 'The Lion King?' That's what I like.
The thing that everyone remembers about 'Bambi' is that moment. 'The Lion King,' took it to quite an extreme because it was an action sequence: his father was killed in a wildebeest stampede - I related, because mine was, too.
I grew up watching Pixar movies. And my favourite - if you don't count 'The Good Dinosaur' - is the first Pixar movie my older brother showed me. That would be 'Monsters, Inc.' I also like Disney - 'The Lion King' is probably my all-time favourite movie.
I was obsessed with 'The Lion King' as a kid, and I really wanted to go work in an animal sanctuary and have my Lara Croft moment.
Have you seen the Broadway version of 'The Lion King?' Go and see it. That's where the future of musical is.
One person I've always wanted to work with who would be an amazing guest star would be James Earl Jones.
