How to Watch Beyoncé's "Black Is King" in Australia

The Queen is back.

It has been a while since Beyoncé has blessed us with new work, and it's safe to say we have been patiently impatiently waiting for the singer to drop another exciting project. 

Well, it turns out Queen Bey never really stops working, because she's written, directed and executive produced a visual album called Black Is King. 

You won't even have to wait that long to see it, because it's premiering globally on Disney+ on 31 July 2020. 

Check out the stunning teaser trailer below.

The visual album will arrive shortly after the one-year anniversary of the release of Disney's The Lion King, in which Beyoncé voiced Nala. 

In fact, Black Is King is actually based on the soundtrack she curated for the The Lion King, called The Lion King: The Gift. 

According to the official synopsis, Black Is King will follow the voyages of Black families throughout time, while honouring a tale about a young kid's transcendent journey through betrayal, love and self-identity. 

"His ancestors help guide him toward his destiny, and with his father's teachings and guidance from his childhood love, he earns the virtues needed to reclaim his home and throne." 

This will be Beyoncé's first directorial effort since the 2019 Netflix documentary film Homecoming.

The visual album will feature artists and guests from The Lion King: The Gift, including Jay-Z, Blue Ivy Carter, Childish Gambino, Kendrick Lamar, Pharrell, Tierra Whack, 070 Shake and Jessie Reyez. 

Fans are already getting ready to have their minds blown.
