Original Allers, Roger Movie Posters

Roger Allers movie posters are dominated by The Lion King (1994) — co-directed with Rob Minkoff, producing Disney's most celebrated theatrical campaign of the 1990s — a production that marked the peak of Disney's second golden age and created characters and images that have defined global popular culture for thirty years.

Allers co-directed The Lion King (1994) with Rob Minkoff, bringing to the screen a film of Shakespearean emotional scope — the story of a lion cub whose uncle murders his father and seizes the throne — rendered in the most ambitious and accomplished animation Disney had produced since the classic era. Hans Zimmer's score, Elton John and Tim Rice's songs, and the voice performances of Matthew Broderick, James Earl Jones, and Jeremy Irons combined to produce a film of genuine emotional power.

Disney's theatrical campaign for The Lion King is one of the great animation marketing exercises of the modern era: the Pride Rock silhouette, the opening 'Circle of Life' imagery, the character designs that translated immediately from screen to advertising art. Original theatrical one-sheets and international variants from the 1994 release are highly collectible items in animation poster history. Original US theatrical materials from The Lion King's 1994 release are now scarce in fine condition.
