Elton John confirmed he is working on the soundtrack for the upcoming live action remake of The Lion King movie

The 70-year-old confirmed he will be recording a new song for the end credits – and he’s hoping Beyonce will join him! She is voicing Nala in the film.


Elton John tells The Sun:
“They need a new end credits song. There’s going to be four of our songs in the film from the original: ‘Can You Feel The Love Tonight’, ‘Hakuna Matata’, ‘I Just Can’t Wait To Be King’ and ‘Circle of Life’.

“And then there will be an end, closing song, and we’ve been speaking to Beyonce’s people and hopefully Tim and I can cook her up something. That’s going out in 2018 as well. And it will be great to work with her. So we will see.”

The Lion King hits theatres on July 19, 2019.
