NEW YORK โ€“ The Walt Disney Co. will make a follow-up to the 2019 live-action โ€œThe Lion King,โ€ with Barry Jenkins, the director of the Oscar-winning โ€œMoonlightโ€ and the James Baldwin adaptation โ€œIf Beale Street Could Talk,โ€ set to direct.

The historic image of Davis, shot by photographer Dario Calmese, shows the 54-year-old in profile, her back facing the camera. Davis is wearing a blue gown with a deep plunge in the back, hand on hip. The publication has โ€œhad a problem in the past with putting Black women on the covers,โ€ Davis says in an interview for the magazine. โ€œThis image (of Davis) reclaims that narrative, transmuting the white gaze on Black suffering into the Black gaze of grace, elegance and beauty.โ€In her Vanity Fair interview, Davis discusses the recent racial justice protests, her upcoming role as Michelle Obama, her impoverished upbringing in Rhode Island, and the challenges of being a Black woman in Hollywood, among other topics.
