Mufasa: The Lion King is the soundtrack for the film of the same name. It was released on December 13, 2024 by Walt Disney Records.

Background

By June 2022, Nicholas Britell was set to compose the score for the film, having previously collaborated with Jenkins on various projects. He was joined by Hans Zimmer and Pharrell Williams in September, returning from the 2019 film.

In April 2024, it was announced that Lin-Manuel Miranda would write the songs for the film; Jenkins approached Miranda to work on the film due to keeping in touch since Jenkins almost cast Miranda in his film If Beale Street Could Talk (2018). Mark Mancina was to co-produce the songs with Miranda, with Lebo M. providing additional vocals and performances.

In September 2024, Dave Metzger was announced to be composing the film's score alongside Britell and Williams, with Zimmer said to have dropped out prior to production.
