Inevitable, I guess. Jon Favreau to helm a live-action version of 1994's The Lion King.

Disney's animated classic The Lion King is the latest movie that will be re-imagined as a live-action/CG project.
..
The new take won't be live-action per se but will definitely look it. Favreau will build on what he accomplished with Jungle Book – using a real child actor and bringing to life the jungle and its animals via cutting edge technology and a green-screen set in a Los Angeles studio.

Is it too much to hope that Nathan Lane and Ernie Sabella will be on board? And they must include the "whaddya want me to do, dress in drag and do the hula?" scene.
