In reply to CascadeWvera1. We don't know for sure that the events of the 2nd movie will be discredited, maybe they'll pop again

In reply to Starocean. That sounds really interesting! Thank you for sharing that, I really appreaciate it^^ So, Kion is going to be Kiara's little brother, heh? Sounds like a fun and interesting idea. The other new characters sound pretty good too, I'm looking forward to see this.

I am very excited for the series and I am WAY BEYOND the Target Demographic. The articles I’ve read (That I think are linked to in the article above) say that Kiara is Kion’s older sister so I’m sure the show is in continuity with Lion King 2.

More Info on Series

The Lion Guard begins as Kion, the second-born cub of Simba and Nala, assumes the role of leader of the Lion Guard, a group of the bravest and brightest tasked with preserving the Pride Lands. Instead of assembling a team of young lions to serve with him, Kion challenges tradition by calling upon friends he believes are the best choices — Bunga, a fearless honey badger; Fuli, a confident cheetah; Beshte, a happy-go-lucky hippo; and Ono, an intellectual egret. Stories will include special appearances by Mufasa, Timon, Pumbaa, Rafiki, Zazu and Kion’s older sister, Kiara, the future Queen of the Pride Lands.

I read somewhere that Simba’s son was named “Kopa”. Also, Simba only had a daughter named Kiara in “The Lion King II”. I wonder why they changed it.

A son? Um I liked how Lion King 2 was and I don’t want another Scar and Mufasa since that will be just scary

This looks great but I almost feel like they’re milking the cow dry with this one. There were TWO sequels to the Lion King already and this is 20 years later, why do they need this, Simba already had a kid and this ‘Kion’ fellow looks like baby Simba with a red mohawk and tail. Ho-hum. I’ll have to wait and see…

Although “Lion King meets the Avengers” sounds freaking awesomesauce! 🙂

Maybe the series should end in Kion´s death so Lion King II will make more sense. Not that is going to happen and despite watching a great deal of Disney sequels as a child and liking them I try to pretend they do not exist now.
