In some ways, it is. According to its filmmakers, The Lion King was inspired by the Joseph and Moses stories in The Bible, in which most Christians believe actually happened. Also, the film bears heavy similiarities to The Epic of Sundiata Keita, which took place in 13rd century Africa. However, the filmmakers never admitted to being inspired by the story while producing the movie.

What genre is the Lion King musical?
If you were to look at the genre of a song from the Lion King on, say iTunes, it would describe it as either "Broadway", "Musical", or "Soundtrack". Though this is true, all of these genres (which pretty much mean the same thing) can be further split into Musical genres. Lion King could be classified as Musical Contemporary (based on the musical styles), Musical Family Comedy (based on the story line) or simply Disney Musical because Disney is, indeed, its own genre.
