- ET looks back at one of James Earl Jones' iconic role as Mufasa in Disney's animated-musical classic, 'The Lion King.' In this 1994 interview, the actor shared behind-the-scenes memories and revealed his favorite song on the movie's soundtrack. 'From the gentle wisdom of Mufasa to the menacing threat of Darth Vader, James Earl Jones gave voice to some of the greatest characters in cinema history,' The Walt Disney Company's CEO, Bob Iger, said in a statement on Monday. 'A celebrated stage actor with nearly 200 film and television credits to his name, the stories he brought to life with a uniquely commanding presence and a true richness of spirit have left an indelible mark on generations of audiences. On behalf of all of us at Disney, we extend our deepest condolences to his family and loved ones.'
"Remember who you are. You are my son, and the one true king." RIP JEJ🦁👑

Brought tears to my eyes
“One day, Simba, the sun will set on my time here…”
The sun has set for James Earl Jones. He has completed his segment in the Circle of Life. Rest in Heaven, James.
Well said, sir!!!
Look at the star! The great kings of the past looked down on us from those stars.
James Earl Jones is now one of the great kings of the past looking down on us from those stars.
His sun has set, now he is one with the Force
@@darrylcarter3691so true.
yes indeed, just like the sun has set on Queen Elizabeth II, and has risen with Charles III as the new king
When he says "the best work of [his] life lives in the memory of those who saw it" shows the type of man he was.❤

RIP to the King. The world has lost a legendary voice
Yes😢
The world has lost him but he is immortalised forever in Star Wars and The Lion King ❤️
"Look at the stars. The Great Kings of the Past look down on us from those stars, So whenever you feel alone, just remember that those kings will always be there to guide you...and so will I" 😭😿
😢😢😢🦁🦁🦁
That's true. 😢 He'll always be there to guide us all from above. 💖
ITS REALLY TO BAD THAT THE VOICE OF MUFASA JAMES EARL JONES I THINK HE WAS A GOOD VOICE ACTOR IN THE LION 🦁 KING BUT ITS REALLY TO BAD THAT HE DIED AT THE AGE OF 93 I JUST WISH HE DIDNT HAVE TO DIE BUT WHATS A PERSON TO DO
Oh my gosh, I just can't believe he is gone, he was such a big part of my childhood and adulthood, Lion King was my favorite as a kid, and I still love it now as an adult. Thankyou for everything James from Lion King to Star Wars.
Remember kid, there's heroes and there's legends. Heroes get remembered but legends never die
“Follow your heart, kid, and you’ll never go wrong.”
@@user-md9dz3gj6ryep. I will always love James Earl Jones as Mr. Myrtle in The Sandlot. One of my favorite movies and The Lion King.
He was going to be… BETTER THAN BABE RUTH!

I take that back. Your dead where you stand
Still the greatest animated movie of all time in my book 30 years later.
James Earl Jones was an incredible choice for a regal king like Mufasa, especially that the story is very shakespearean and James himself played alot of Shakespeare on Stage. This voice will live on forever and many generations in the future will enjoy and love this movie.
RIP James Earl Jones. Your voice will always be the GOAT
I agree with you.
Agreed 👍
Agreed
😢 👏 🤍
I agree. There's still nothing like the original Lion King when it comes to 2D animation.
I’m not ashamed to admit that Mufasa was my movie dad. That voice alone always made me stop whatever I was doing and listen.
R.I.P. James Earl Jones (1931-2024)
You did the voice of Mufasa in The Lion King. Thank you, JEJ.
"Also the voice of Darth Vader?"
@@joeerickson516 R.I.P. James Earl Jones (1931-2024)
You did the voice of Darth Vader in Star Wars film series and you did the voice of Mufasa in The Lion King.
The Lion King, 1994 - Scar: But the king is dead.
🎶He lives in you
He lives in me
He watches over
Everything we see
Into the water
Into the truth
In your reflection
He lives in you🎶
Let’s all raise our lightsabers, hit a baseball home run, and look at the stars of the Great Kings of the Past, respect the circle of life, all in remembrance and legacy of James Earl Jones.
Rest In Peace, James Earl Jones. The force will always be with him. He is now with The Great Kings of the Past. Rest in peace to a true legend of cinema. ❤️🕊️
I know most people say that Darth Vader was his favorite performance but for me it will always be Mufasa! The 7 year old me was in awe when The Lion King was released and it's still top 10 all time films period imo. Rest in Power King.
Me too, I’ve always remember him as Mufasa and I always will
James Earl Jones As Mufasa
And Vader
My childhood knowing him has muffasa from the lion king. Rip king. Thank you for your amazing work you will live in our hearts forever.
Yes he will
This is the James Earl Jones I grew up with as a child......Long live the king......R.I.P Legend......
Rip Earl Jones and Mufasa who took part in the great circle of life

RIP James Earl Jones 1931-2024 😢
Thank you James 😢 for being memories to these people ❤
"The dopey grin is mine" bit made me smile. I also loved that little moment of self-deprecation near the end of this, where, with a slight chuckle, he hinted at his lack of singing ability. Both are sweet glimpses into his personality, that gentleness that so many are recalling now. (9/10/2024)
Man oh man our legends are leaving us. James Earl Jones was one of my favorite actors/ voices of all time. I’m gonna miss just knowing he was here. RIP Sir ❤
God bless Mufasa. ✝️✝️💟💟🙏🏽🙏🏽🌞🌞🌛🌛☁️☁️🌎🌎💫💫💐💐🦁🦁 Thanks, James Earl Jones for our childhood. 🎬🎬📺📺⭐️⭐️
James Earl Jones will always be memorable and the voice of Mufasa in The Lion King. It’s great to see he impressed his smile and his voice did make it like a great animated lion impression. That’s good behind Earl Jones’ early setup. Farewell the great legendary voice of Mufasa, known as the Lion King.
R.I.P james earl jones 1931-2024🕊😢
"We are all connected in the GREAT CIRCLE OF LIFE" 🦁👑 RIP JEJ, MY KING😢
He was one of the greatest to ever walk this Earth. His journey on the Circle of Life has come to an end, and he is one with the Force now. RIP James Earl Jones. Godspeed and God Bless.
He's with Robin Williams, Ilene Woods, Adriana Caselotti, Heather Angel, all the other deceased Disney Cast Member voice actors and actresses, and the Disney Brothers in Heaven.
The best fatherly voice and the best fatherly advice in ANY Disney movie delivered from an absolute legend. RIP legendary James Earl Jones.
There will never be someone who can do a deep voice for Mufasa like James Earl Jones himself. Rest in peace to a true legend.
I love his baritone voice and he really suited the character of Mufasa in the Lion King. He was such an amazing actor. I'm glad he lived a long life. R.I.P. legend.
RIP James Earl Jones, he lives in you.
Loved this man ❤️❤️❤️
They even animated Mufasa to look like J.E.J! I’m going to miss his magnificent voice!
thank you for everything....may the force be with him.....rest in peace
Long live the king 😢
Thankful for everything he gave to this world!. 💪🙂
The lion king will always be the goat.
Rest in peace James Earl Jones🕊🕊🕊
RIP James Earl Jones. Thanks for everything you've given us, and may your work continue to inspire others in the great Circle of Life.
I cried like a baby when JEJ died. He truly was a legend. Rest in peace buddy
He will be so missed 😢
Praying for his family 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Rip James Earl Jones. The Lion King was my favorite movie when I was little.
End of lion king era 😢
Probably the finest American Actor ever. 😢. I dunno why I thought he may live forever. I was hoping he would. Totally bummed to hear of his passing. Rest in peace, James.
Thank you for honoring the wonderful life and career of this very talented man. I watched the Lion King at the movies with my little sister when it came out - I was 11 and she was 6. I cried so much when Mufasa died and til this day, the Lion King remains as my #1 favorite film of all time. I am almost 42 and it’s a little tougher to watch the movie since I’ve lost my father and my little sister to cancer and watching it gets me in my feels. Mufasa was that regal, strong, protective papa and this video made me cry like a baby. Thank you for highlighting his role as Mufasa. Long live King Mufasa 🦁
RIP to the great Mufasa king of the Pridlands and thank you so much Mr Jones for being such a big part of my childhood memories 👍😢❤️🦁
I'm a loss for words I can't believe James Earl Jones passed away can you bring the Lion King to life when did the voice of mufasa I saw that movie 22 times in a row back in Chicago that summer of 1994 I sat through the Lion King movie twice
FAREWELL JAMES EARL JONES. ❤😢🦁

A life well lived. He lived to be 93. He was Mufasa, Darth Vader, Thulsa Doom, King Jaffe Joffer...
