Bey prepared. *Scar's voice*

As all of Hollywood should know by now, the Queen Bey a.k.a. Beyoncé will be making her star Disney debut in one of the most dangerously-anticipated live-action remakes slated for 2019, The Lion King.

The teaser for the film, which dropped on Thanksgiving (November 23), glued the eyes of ‘80s and ‘90s nostalgia enthusiasts to their screens as the one-minute-thirty-two-second trailer ran for the first time ever. Not long after, the Twitterverse exploded with even more suspense as memes and memories of the original 1994 classic burst into the top spot of Thanksgiving’s trending topics. According to a virally-ciculated screenshot, the Queen Bey then finished off the internet detonation with her alleged first-ever comment on Instagram: a lion and crown emoji on a post from an Instagram account dedicated to the 2019-slated blockbuster.

  • And the BeyHive hasn’t rested ever since:
