I’ll grant Robin Williams in Aladdin, but James Earl Jones was already at least as well known for his voice work as for his screen appearances by the time he did The Lion King.[/quote]
The Lion King cast was definitely packed with screen celebrities other than James Earl Jones. The title character was voiced by Jonathan Taylor Thomas (during Home Improvement’s heyday) and Matthew Broderick. Other voices included Jeremy Irons, Moira Kelly, Nathan Lane, Robert Guillame, Rowan Atkinson, Whoopi Goldberg, and Cheech Marin.
