I know Matt Broderick played Simba in Lion King 1 and 2. I checked out imdb.com and for the first Lion King movie, they didn't list any people who provided "singing voices". And in the Lion King 2 on IMDB, they provided the "singing voices" of every character except Simba. So, does Matt Broderick do the singing in any of the movies? It doesn't sound like him. I don't think he sang really in the 1st movie, except in part of "Hakuna Matata," but in the 2nd movie, Simba sings a song to Kiara.

Or to make it easier: Who sings as Adult Simba in the movies

Matthew did not sing any of the songs in any Lion King movie. At least, that's what I remember him saying in an interview somewhere around the time he was in The Producers. Updated On: 10/6/04 at 12:26 AM

Yeah, even Matthew chuckled about it in the interview.

Though Simba didn't really do all that much singing anyway.

Now Pumba and Timon...that's a different story.
