Wearing a lavender dress and donning red hair, 7-year-old Blue evokes similarities to a red-haired Simba in the 1994 version of the Disney film.

Beyonce, in a lavender and red gown, takes her daughter's hand as she sits in a desert landscape. The two sit as women -- also with red hair -- stand and sing behind them in red bodysuits.

It's just the latest music video Blue has starred in. She made her debut in her mother's "Blue" video from her 2012 self-titled album and has appeared in Beyonce's video for "Formation" and her dad Jay-Z's "Family Feud" video, among others.

Watch "Spirit" below.
