Lupita Nyong'o is a busy lady these days. With not one, not two, but three Disney movies coming up, the Oscar-winning actress had quite a full schedule at Disney's D23 event over the weekend. Lupita got to meet one of her co-stars from The Jungle Book -- an upcoming adaptation from Jon Favreau that will blend animation with live-action -- and helped promote Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
While there's a lot of hype about the newest Star Wars film, as always, it was what Lupita had to say about The Jungle Book that had audiences intrigued. Nyong'o posed for pictures with her young co-star, Neel Sethi, who plays her adopted son Mowgli. The actress plays Raksha the wolf in the film.
"Met my #TheJungleBook son #Mowgli for the first time today, Neel Sethi. And we watched a teaser with the #d23expo crowd for the first time. The world is in for a TREAT," Nyong'o said of the movie.
The Jungle Book is due out next year and also stars Scarlett Johansson, Idris Elba, Bill Murray, and Christopher Walken.
Lupita made headlines at the event with her chic summery dress and curly hairstyle, which is longer than what she usually wears. She later shared tons of photos on Instagram, including a silly one of her holding up two new Star Wars posters.
