The cast of Disney's live action The Lion King has been blessed with the holy presence of Beyoncé, who will play Nala. And, as you might expect, the internet has lost any semblance of chill it once possessed - though let's be clear: it was already the least chill place ever.
Reactions to Beyoncé's casting news ranged from shaking, to crying, to flailing, and we've rounded up the most extra responses Twitter could come up with.
