    Childish Gambino

    Donald Glover, aka Childish Gambino, has revealed the future of his musical alter-ego - while dressed in a lion onesie.

    As he prepares for the release of the new Lion King, in which he voices Simba, Glover stopped by Jimmy Kimmel's show to talk about all that's happening in his world.

    Off the bat, he was asked about the future of Childish Gambino - as he prepares to visit Australia for Splendour In The Grass.

    "I mean, I think I'm gonna still do shows," Glover said.

    "I'm not quite sure, I'm pretty sure, I definitely wanna, I mean, I broke my foot. I had to make up these shows. I love music. I really love making music."

    However, there's bad news if you're expecting Lion King songs in the setlist - Glover joked that Disney likely won't let him.

    He also spoke about working with Beyoncé for the film, revealing he recorded his parts separately.

    "I requested not to be [in the same room as Beyoncé]," Glover said.

    "I did not wanna be looking into Beyonce's eyes while doing this. But actually, I was working on Solo at the time so I was in London, so I recorded at Abbey Road Studios."

    The Lion King comes out July 20th - and will feature a new song from Beyoncé called Spirit.
