The next generation of Hollywood royalty is here, and they're taking over Pride Rock. But not everyone is roaring with approval.

Twelve-year-old Blue Ivy secured the coveted voice role of young Kiara in Disney's live-action prequel, "Mufasa: The Lion King", set to star Queen Bey herself as adult Nala. This casting felt like a natural progression for Blue Ivy, who'd already dipped her paws into the entertainment world, narrating audiobooks and even snagging a Grammy for her collaboration with Mom on "Brown Skin Girl".
