ASOS Is Launching A 'The Lion King' Collection Next Month And OMG

ASOS is catering to the big kid in all of us by announcing an exclusive The Lion King collection. Yes, you did just read that sentence and yes, you're going to want all of it.

The retailers ASOS Design has teamed up with Disney to release a collection to celebrate the release of the live action reboot of the movie, which hits cinemas on 19th July.

The collection features menswear, womenswear and unisex pieces as well as ASOS CURVE and ASOS PLUS styles. There's also an accessories collection if you want to go all in.

As for the actual clothes, think T-shirts, jumpers, shirts and more adorned with motifs featuring your favourite Lion King characters from the original animated movie. You could get you hands on a tie-dye Timone tee, a jumper with Simba and Nila, or a Zazu co-ord.

There's also a pretty loud shirt and short co-ord we can see your festi-lads rocking to their next festival. It's certainly a look...

As for prices, they range from £12 for a bucket hat with Simba embroidery, to £55 for a cropped denim co-ord, with loads of reasonable prices in between (you can get a Timone t-shirt for £25 and a unisex The Lion King logo jumper for £35).

The highly anticipated reboot of the 1994 Disney classic has been produced by Walt Disney Pictures and directed by Iron Man's Jon Favreau.

The Lion King live-action remake will feature computer animation, with a number of high-profile actors lending their voices to the film, including Donald Glover as Simba, Beyonce as Nala and James Earl Jones returning to his role as Mufasa.

Elton John, who made compositions for the original film, will be back and Hans Zimmer will return to score the film.

When news of the film was announced in 2018, director Jon said of his team: "It is a director's dream to assemble a talented team like this to bring this classic story to life."

The Lion King is set to hit cinemas on 19th July 2019 in the UK and you can prebook tickets now.

Thanks to the new ASOS collection, we can truly embrace all things The Lion King when we go and watch it at the cinema wearing our Rafiki tee.

Cannot. Wait.
