Blue Ivy Carter Lands First Acting Role In Disney's Mufasa

Beyoncé’s 12-year-old daughter lands her first acting role

Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s 12-year-old daughter Blue Ivy Carter has landed her first acting role in the upcoming film 'Mufasa: The Lion King.' Blue Ivy, who previously appeared on stage during her mother's Renaissance world tour in 2023 and as a backup dancer at the Oscars in 2022, will voice the character of Kiara, the daughter of Simba and Nala, in this new Disney production.

'Mufasa: The Lion King' is a prequel directed by Barry Jenkins, focusing on the backstory between Mufasa and Scar leading up to the original 1994 film. Beyoncé will reprise her role as the voice of Nala, a character she first portrayed in the 2019 live-action adaptation of 'The Lion King.'
