Which Disney movie features the song “Hakuna Matata”? The Lion King features “Hakuna Matata.”

In the 1994 animated film, Timon and Pumbaa introduce the phrase to Simba while he is living away from the Pride Lands. The upbeat musical number presents their carefree philosophy and helps show Simba's transition from grieving cub to young adult. Its title comes from Swahili and is commonly translated as “no worries.”

The song was written by Elton John, with lyrics by Tim Rice, and it became one of the film's best-known musical sequences. Voice performances by Nathan Lane, Ernie Sabella, and Matthew Broderick helped give the number its comic energy, while the changing scenery shows Simba growing up alongside Timon and Pumbaa.

A common mix-up is choosing The Lion King II because that sequel continues Simba's story, but “Hakuna Matata” belongs to the original 1994 film. The phrase and song also appear in later adaptations and stage productions, including Disney's 2019 photorealistic remake, but The Lion King is the canonical movie answer.
