Beyonce has been noticeably absent from The Lion King trailers but dont worry, the best is yet to come, according to her co-star Billy Eichner who has teased her anticipated performance.
The 37-year-old singer will star as Nala in Disneys remake of the classic animation, alongside Donald Glover in the lead role of Simba.
Well, Billy has confirmed that not only is Beyonce definitely in the movie, but shes recorded a duet of Can You Feel The Love Tonight? with Donald.
And, as expected, it sounds beautiful.
During his appearance on Crooked Medias Keep It podcast, Billie teased: Shes definitely in the movie because Ive seen a rough cut.
And Ive heard her sing Can You Feel the Love Tonight? with Donald Glover and Im telling you, its fucking good.

Tell. Us. More.
And that was never my favorite song to be totally honest, Billie continued.
I liked it when Elton John sang it. I love Elton John. I dont want to give too much away about that, they do not want us talking about it. I will just say that honestly, it made me cry and I was not expecting that.
We sense a classic in the making.
Billy will play Timon alongside Seth Rogen as Pumba in the remake, while James Earl Jones is reprising his role as Mufasa, the character he voiced in the 1994 original.
On his own role as the comedic meerkat, Billy said: [Playing Timon is] shocking, its bizarre, its terrifying.
You cant really do it better than [Nathan Lane] did it, you can just do it your way.
