If these new cast photos don't get you hyped for 'The Lion King,' we're not sure what will

(CNN) The mood at Pride Rock has been set, and it's nothing less than fierce.

Disney released new photos of "The Lion King" cast in front of a simple black background as they stare down their computer-animated characters.

It's Beyoncé versus Nala. Donald Glover versus Simba. Seth Rogen, Billy Eichner and John Oliver versus Pumbaa, Timon and Zazu.

Basically, everyone brought their A-game for this photo shoot. And fans are swooning over these looks, especially Beyoncé's die-hard fan base, most commonly known as the Bey Hive.

The original "Lion King" was animated and released in 1994.

Directed by Jon Favreau, the new live-action movie also stars James Earl Jones, Keegan-Michael Key, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Eric André, Alfre Woodard and John Kani.

"The Lion King" hits theaters July 19.

Correction: A previous version of this story misspelled Seth Rogen's, Keegan-Michael Key's and Alfre Woodard's names.
