The Lion King promo is all about Beyoncé: Good or bad?

E! News just had their "Lion King" segment and all they showed was the cast gushing over working with Beyoncé or - and I quote - "breathing the same air as Beyoncé" on the red carpet 
Then Donald Glover talks to Jimmy Kimmel and, of course, talks about Beyoncé. The recent Lion King interview on Jimmy Fallon saw Keegan-Michael Key gushing over Beyoncé. GMA talked about The Lion King as well and it was about Beyoncé too.
So...are they going overboard with this? I'm a stan so of course it's great to see this much hype for her but is it really a clever marketing tactic? Won't people be waaaay too disappointed once they hear the song and the movie? What are your thoughts on this? Please share below!

More of a mixed bag because it makes it seem like she’s leading the film when she’s not a major focal point at all according to people who’ve seen it. That said I doubt that’s gonna affect the box office in any way.

Kind of sad for a remake of one of the most highly rated movies ever.
