We return to Pride Rock in this musical prequel as Rafiki recounts the legend of Mufasa to Kiara, the daughter of Simba and Nala.

The story introduces Mufasa as an orphaned cub, lost and alone until he meets a sympathetic lion prince named Taka — later known as Scar. The chance encounter sets into motion an extraordinary journey of a group of misfits searching for their destiny, with their bonds being tested when they work together to evade a threatening and deadly foe.

Mewn gerddorol stori sy’n adrodd hanes Pride Rock cyn y ‘Lion King’ mae Raki yn adrodd chwedl Mufasa i Kiara, merch Simba a Nala.

Mae’r stori’n cyflwyno Mufasa fel llew ifanc amddifad, ar goll ac ar ei ben ei hun nes iddo gwrdd â thywysog llew sy’n cydymdeimlo ag ef — a adwaenid yn ddiweddarach fel Scar. Dyma gychwyn ar daith ryfeddol grŵp o anffodusion sy’n chwilio am eu tynged. Mae eu perthynas yn cael eu brofi pan fyddant yn cydweithio i osgoi gelyn bygythiol a marwol.

Mae Florence Pugh ac Andrew Garfield yn serennu fel Almut, cogydd addawol, a Tobias, sydd wedi ysgaru’n ddiweddar. Mae eu bywydau yn newid am byth pan eu bod yn cwrdd ar hap.
