@@m1sh474 You telling me the live musical got it wrong from the start. The colorful faced Rafiki is a Male Mandrill. Next they'll be letting a female actor play Simba like they do with Peter Pan.
I think the reason why they did not kiss is because they wanted to mimic the movements of the animals in the movie ass well as in real life. Having them kiss is really not needed because you really feel the love in the portrayals. And they are lions, they don't express love in kisses.
I saw this cast a couple of nights ago and oh my goodness. Nick is absolutely incredible. He gives Simba such emotion and truth in his performance and the rest of the cast are outstanding too. I wanna go again. !
I just love the way Simba searches for her hand, the way he holds her, the way he looks at her...OMG...the feels, the feels....and that manly manly chest...Really wished they kissed at 1:58.....I watched this clip of Nala and Simba over and over again and never get bored.....
Technically I agree to that but Beyonce and Donald's version perfectly fits the scene in the movie. It actually got me to tears. Well anyway I grew to Lion King so regardless, all covers are great 😊✌🏻❤️
I've been looking for this for over a month but they took the video down for some reason. This is the best Simba his voice is so emotional and his facial expressions and body movements are absolutely amazing. Thank u for putting it back up.
ABSOLUTELY in love with Simba. WOW. Just fantastic. His performance is phenomenal. His voice is exceptionally beautiful. And Nala is sooooo graceful and lovely! Her voice is epic!!!! Wonderful job!!!!!!
Der liebevolle Puschel it actually is the best version / combo / duet / however you want to put it. I’ve been binging out trying to find other videos of these 2 and only found them performing with other people and nowhere near the same chemistry on both accounts. They really do amazing together, I wouldn’t want to watch any other production without knowing that these two were playing Simba and Nala. Just incredible!
My goodness, the purity in his eyes, his emotions always on point, and living each scene as if it was his first and last time, the way he dances as a truly African and his young but regal voice... Nik Afoa will always be the one and only Simba!!
Ava Brennan and Nick Afoa, the best Simba and Nala in my opinion. Their chemistry and connection is simply amazing! They compliment each other in every way and bring the spirit of Simba and Nala to life.
Lyrics: Can you feel the love tonight? The peace the evening brings, the world for once, in perfect harmony.. with all its living things! Simba: So many things to tell her.. but how to make her see? The truth about my past? Impossible! She'd turn away from me... Nala: He's holding back, he's hiding.. but what, I can't decide.. Why won't he be the king I know he is.... the king I see inside! Can you feel the love tonight? You needn't look too far! Stealing through, the night's uncertainties.. love is where we are! Nala: And if he feels the love tonight.. in the way I do... Simba: It's enough for this restless wanderer.. just to be with you..
I teared up the very first time I saw this video, because this was my first time hearing that last part of the song (replacing Timon and Puumba). It’s so pretty ❤️ The only thing stopping me from full-blown happy tears was Rafiki yelling 😅
I don't particulary like the Lion King, but I can't say no to a handsome face like that, especially if the face is also accompanied by gorgeous muscles 😂😂😂 Thanks to that I got to know and enjoy the music 💖
Wonderful Internationally famous stage musical. I wish I could write and produce an original one like this about my country - the Philippines. May our Divine Father God Almighty help me.

NICK AFOA one the best Simba! he needs to be on broadway!
he needs to stay in the west end. the best place!!
iipurplefrost 😂
This is West End, it's better than Broadway.
And yet, Ya still gotta give the original Broadway cast some props for how they did!
Leave him where he is so we can keep enjoying him here in London! Thank you
Nick Afoa as Simba is fantastic, but who is the girl playing Nala? She has an amazingly beautiful voice.
I think it is Ava Brennan
Her body movement is so beautiful, so beautiful, amazing
Sorry but Jason crushes him so much more powerful like a true king
idk her name anymore but she used to play nala in germany as well
Travis Crist - Agreed, Jason’s voice just had so much power to it.
Not me crying 20 years later over Mufasa and Simba's relationship. "He lives in you" hits different when you've lost a parent as well.
@no one so so true
Reading that gave me the goosebumps 😁😁😁😁
Facts
OMG. I just saw it for the 3rd time tonight and, having lost a parent suddenly a few months ago, felt the same thing about that song.
I Love The Lion King!♥♡
Best simba in recent years
No, I'm not looking at his muscles. IM NOT LOOKING AT HIS MUSCLES! WHY AM I LOOKING AT HIS MUSCLES!!!! GOD DAMN IT!
4:08 he lives in you ❤❤❤❤❤
It's so wonderful ✨

What’s their names, the singers?
Tamasha!!!💫
This is what I consider the live action Lion King
Couldn’t agree more. I still refuse to go see that new atrocity
@Matilda Lochrin I still cried when simba did
@Scott Dennis meh
The thing is the remake wasn’t live action either, because it was CGI.
Amen!
I cracked up at the scene where Rafiki came out of nowhere "yiyiyiyiyiyi"
Mind can't process a female Rafiki...🙄
yessssssss
Man I couldn’t stop laughing when she said “WHERE ARE U GOIN”

Justin Paul Mijares - Lions also lick each other to express their love. They should of licked the fuck outta one another.
@@brunomars9045 XD
Or maybe because you don't have to play tonsil hockey to let the other know you care.
@@brunomars9045 😂😂😂😂😂
People forget they are playing lions, not playing humans who happen to be dressed as lions.
Simba IS SO HOT
Jeuz Paul Rarama lord have mercy he lovely true
He is Nick Afoa. You're welcome
박재이유스 if you say that are you nose bleeding LOL
I can't stop looking at his muscles
Me too
ay...
MEEE TOOOO!
Sounds gay...
Gay
That Simba is handsome!😎
I know right he lovely true
I’m still waiting for the day that this entire show gets filmed live onstage and is put in movie theaters. If anything, this show deserves that much
Then no one would see it in person.
@@miamitten1123 disagree. TOTALLY different experience.
Same here ❤

Nik Afoa is part of our huge fam and all of the lionking on Brodway characters/acters all of them are part of our huge fam
Yass i agree

2:37 they starting smile and laughing when Rafiki said yiyiyiyiyiyiyiyiyiyiyiyiy they just couldn't hold it xD
Best Simba Ever!!!!!! His half smile at 1:43 would melt any Lioness heart!
KingOfD !!! yasssss (this a girl btw)
cuzzo this is my dad's page
Yassss
hell, it melted me as a lion ;)
Think nick is the most handsomest simba
True, nick is sexy and handsome😍
Rafiki's yiyiyiyiyi is so contagious and funny to the point that both Nala and Simba cannot hold their laugh LOL!
There's a lot of comments about Nick and he was awesome but Ava is absolutely my favorite Nala!
Maros Blacklisted - Yes. She is the best Nala. Her and Nick Together is just Perfection.

It sucks that you’re right

I just came here to cleanse myself from 2019 Lion King
I refuse to watch the new one I’m still pissed they remade it
Damn Simba been hittin the gym.
I've been looking for this for over a month but they took the video down for some reason. This is the best Simba his voice is so emotional and his facial expressions and body movements are absolutely amazing. Thank u for putting it back up.
I think there is one more vid like this before though… I couldn’t find it unfortunately
Oh that chest.
Jeremih Litao he lovely ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕true
Can we just get an album of nick afoa singing the lion king songs please?!
trust me
2:02 her singing is beautiful, I have goosebumps
OMG That "and if..." takes me out every time.
That Simba 😱 Amazing!!!
That woman who plays Rafiki deserves an award for her performance. She's SO GOOD!
Nick Afoa is officially THE BEST Simba.
Nope Jason Raize was
Nick Afoa is a great actor but he can't sing in high pitch. You can barely hear him when they sing together.
Everyone is outstanding, but Rafiki!!! She is just pure genius on the stage.
ABSOLUTELY in love with Simba. WOW. Just fantastic. His performance is phenomenal. His voice is exceptionally beautiful.
And Nala is sooooo graceful and lovely! Her voice is epic!!!!
Wonderful job!!!!!!
Wow.. I would say this could be the best version of all I saw in RUclips.

Oh, this makes me miss Jason Raize. A beautiful soul, a terrible loss. I'm so glad the songs he sang continue to amaze and enthrall.
Jason raise and all the lionking on Brodway Characters/acters are part of our huge fam!
These two amd Rafiki are the PERFECT cast. Best Simba, Nala and Rafiki.
I need a West End soundtrack of Lion King with these people!!!!!
My goodness, the purity in his eyes, his emotions always on point, and living each scene as if it was his first and last time, the way he dances as a truly African and his young but regal voice... Nik Afoa will always be the one and only Simba!!

I'm really in love with Nick Afoa 😍 he's so cute.

Had the honour of watching Nick perform when the cast came to New Zealand last year! What a performance by all of them 👐
I watched him in Sydney also! Cannot forget
このシンバとナラ世界でが一番好き♥️♥️♥️
Their expressions at 2:37 when Rafiki scream are so good 💙
Fun fact she has been doing this since 1999 so cool i love her as rafiki 🥰🥰😊
The actress who plays Nala looks and sounds like Nicole Scherzinger.
That moment when your mom finds out you have a girlfriend.
Samoa is proud of you Nick Afoa!! Best Simba!

The expressions on her face are amazing!!

Omg Nick is incredible, im in love already
Iam Snoow I know I’m in love with him too nick is sexy Lion 🦁
just seen lion king in london a few weeks ago. LOVED IT. i believe it was Nick Afoa that was Simba in this one. (can recognize his voice)
Tiffani Moenssen correct! Nick is still killing it as simba in the west end!!
Stunning resemblance to the Original Simba, played by the late Jason Raize.
R.I.P. 🕊🥀🕊❤️
Totally mesmerising Amazing performance, definitely a must see.
This simba actor is my favorite!
you guys knew exactly what you were doing with that thumbnail
it worked
Why are they so perfect😍always will be my favorite musical. Saw it a few years ago. I so wanna go back!
Wow good looking guy and muscle
Wonderful Internationally famous stage musical. I wish I could write and produce an original one like this about my country - the Philippines. May our Divine Father God Almighty help me.
I dont understand how I just felt. It's damn beautiful. It is as if I'm watching a movie. Wow. *cries in rafiki voice*
Damn they're so good together.
Nick Afoa is great as always but she is the most beautiful Nala I've ever seen. What's her name? The grace, the voice, and the beauty, AWESOME!
I saw the play in Mexico…Oh my God, I’ll never forget it.
God Bless You All!!! Bye!!!
Wow their chemistry 👌🏼💕
WOW ….The Lion King is a hottie. Who knew? The muscles are ….OMG.
I am glad Nick Afoa was cast. Jason Raize would’ve been proud
I saw this in New York...but this perfomance makes me want to go to London !!
His Vocals!! I mean hers is amazing but I felt some type of why when he sang 😀
1:30 her voice is very beautiful
This was just adorable. Beautiful cast of voices
Wow my first time seeing this performance ... I gotta day, the lion headdresses look pretty cool & ridiculous at the same time 😂
wow, such beautiful voices OMG!
