It's quite funny when both he and Jeremy Irons are asked about The Lion King, they always reference/compliment each other. When Irons was interviewed on 'Inside the Actors Studio' and asked about Scar, he described him as ugly. When the host playfully protested, he said "Look at him (Scar)! Look at that tail. James Earl Jones, have you seen his tail? Big muscles, flowing hair like this!" It's pretty surreal.

I love James Earl Johnson he is a true legend in film history. Whether as an actor or voice actor. I met him as Lord Darth Vader the Dark Lord of the Sith, who has the best Darth Vader voice ever. But as the very powerful and wise King Mufasa he was world class, he has a very epic voice and I am very happy that he again speaks in the real computer lime to the mighty Mufasa in 2019 of the Lion King. That was very epic. I love and adore James Earl Johnson one of the best actors and voice actors of all time. Long live James Earl Johnson.
