What is the title of Beyoncé's 2020 album-length film inspired by The Lion King?

Beyoncé's 2020 album-length film inspired by The Lion King is titled Black Is King.

Black Is King was written, directed, and executive-produced by Beyoncé. Disney+ released it on July 31, 2020. The film reimagines the story and themes connected to Disney's 2019 remake of The Lion King, for which Beyoncé voiced Nala and contributed music to the companion project The Lion King: The Gift.

Rather than functioning as a conventional concert film, Black Is King uses a sequence of music videos, choreography, fashion, symbolism, and visual locations to explore African heritage, family, ancestry, and self-discovery. Much of its music comes from The Lion King: The Gift, which was released in 2019.

The title emphasizes cultural pride and the importance of seeing Black characters and traditions centered in a large-scale visual work. It is sometimes confused with Homecoming, Beyoncé's 2019 documentary about her Coachella performance, but the two projects have different subjects and formats.
