Will Scar's 'Be Prepared' Make The Cut For Live-Action THE LION KING?

According to The Sun, Elton John is working with Beyonce to write new music for the upcoming live-action remake of The Lion King, in which Beyonce will play Nala.

The movie is set to feature four of the film's original songs by John and Tim Rice. Elton John told The Sun, "They need to have a new end credits song. There's going to be four of our songs in the film, from the original: 'Can You Feel The Love Tonight?', 'Hakuna Matata', 'I Just Can't Wait To Be King' and 'Circle of Life'. And then there will be an end, closing song, and we've been speaking to Beyonce's people and hopefully Tim and I and her can cook up something."

However, in all the excitement of name-dropping Beyoncé, one might not notice the iconic song omitted from the list. Though it might not be as memorable as a song like "Hakuna Matata", the number "Be Prepared" seems like it might not make it into the film. The number is sung by the villainous character Scar.

The all-star lineup for director Jon Favreau's new take on Disney's 1994 classic animated film "The Lion King" includes stars from the film, TV, theater and music arenas. Featuring pioneering filmmaking techniques, the film welcomes back to the big screen iconic characters that audiences have long treasured-but in a whole new way. From Disney Live Action, "The Lion King" is slated for U.S. theaters on July 19, 2019.

Lions rule the African savanna in "The Lion King," which welcomes Donald Glover("Atlanta," "Solo: A Star Wars Story") as future king Simba, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter ("Dreamgirls," "Lemonade" visual album) as Simba's friend-turned-love interest Nala, and James Earl Jones ("Rogue One: A Star Wars Story," "Field of Dreams") as Simba's wise and loving father, Mufasa, reprising his iconic performance from Disney's 1994 animated classic. Chiwetel Ejiofor ("Twelve Years a Slave," Marvel Studios' "Doctor Strange") was called on to portray Simba's villainous uncle Scar, and Alfre Woodard("Juanita," Marvel's "Luke Cage") portrays Simba's no-nonsense mother, Sarabi. JD McCrary (OWN's "Tyler Perry's The Paynes," Apple's "Vital Signs") fills the shoes of Young Simba, a confident cub who can't wait to be king, and Shahadi Wright Joseph(NBC's "Hairspray Live," Broadway's "The Lion King") brings tough cub Young Nala to life.

Every kingdom comes with a trustworthy advisor or two. John Kani ("Coriolanus," Marvel Studios' "Captain America: Civil War") was cast as the wise baboon Rafiki, and John Oliver (HBO's "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver," Comedy Central's "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart") was tapped as hornbill Zazu, Mufasa's loyal confidant. When Simba goes into exile, he relies on two newfound friends-Seth Rogen ("Sausage Party," "Neighbors") lends his comedic chops to naïve warthog Pumbaa, and Billy Eichner ("Billy on the Street," FX's "American Horror Story") joins the cast as know-it-all meerkat Timon.

While most of the animals in the kingdom respect the king, the hyenas have other plans. Florence Kasumba (NBC's "Emerald City," Marvel Studios' "Black Panther") portrays Shenzi, Eric André (Adult Swim's "The Eric André Show," FXX's "Man Seeking Woman") is Azizi, and Keegan-Michael Key ("Predator," Netflix's "Friends from College") plays Kamari.
