11/10/2024 - New MUFASA trailer
We get a lot more about the backstory of Sarabi, Zazu, and a rival pride of white lions. Interestingly, a duel appears to be fought in an arena of sorts on top of an isolated pillar of rock, which was a discarded idea from early drafts of the original movie (see the Scripts section of this site).

12/16/2023 - Kiara-centric framing story for "TLK: Mufasa"
https://twitter.com/HollywoodHandle/status/1735020396523458605?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw
It appears that The Lion King: Mufasa will feature a framing device in which Rafiki, Timon, and Pumbaa tell Kiara about the legend of their grandfather.
The source for this information appears to be a tweet unrelated to any official spokesperson, but it seems plausible enough as a premise.
