The Lion King remake may have found its Timon and Pumbaa

This latest Disney casting has us all kinds of excited.

With The Lion King live-action remake due to be released in 2019, it was only a matter of time before we got wind of who would be playing the lovable rogues, Timon and Pumbaa. Well, today it was reported that Billy on the Street host Billy Eichner and Bad Neighbours star Seth Rogen will play, arguably, the most beloved of Disney duos. It’s already been announced that Donald Glover will play the lead role of Simba with James Earl Jones reprising the role he played in the 1994 original. We’re sure Billy and Seth will be working hard to get their vocal chords in shape for their performance of the infectious musical number, ‘Hakuna Matata’.
