Simba is de jonge zoon van leeuwenkoning Mufasa. Hij kijkt tegen zijn vader op en neemt zijn koninklijke bestemming ter harte. Dat zint Mufasa's jaloerse broer Scar absoluut niet en smeedt samen met een groep hyena's een plan om zowel Mufasa als Simba uit de weg te ruimen, zodat hij zelf de macht kan grijpen.
Nee, helaas is De Leeuwenkoning nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
