Disney Preps For "Lion King" Sequel with "Moonlight" Director Barry Jenkins

But what makes this even better is that they've tapped Oscar winner, Barry Jenkins to direct the photo-realistic film, according to Deadline. If you recall, Barry won an Oscar for his film "Moonlight" and he directed the adaptation film, "If Beale Street Could Talk."
