Ahead of its highly-anticipated release, Disney have released two sneak peek clips of the latest Disney live-action remake 'The Lion King'.

In one clip, it shows Timon (Billy Eichner) and Pumbaa (Seth Rogan), spotting Simba (Donald Glover) for the first time, thinking he's a bird, before realising he's a lion cub!

Hilariously, Timon acts like a doctor, saying "Let's see what we're dealing with here", before exclaiming, "It's a lion, run for your life!" Pumbaa then responds by saying, "Can we keep him, can we please keep him?".

In the second clip, Simba is being taught how to roar, being told, "This gorge is where all lions come to find their roar". Simba, who looks extremely realistic, then responds by attempting to find his roar, but fails. He instead lets out a baby squeal, which is adorable!
