Jungle Book is coming out on April 15 — are you as excited as I am about this new release? Either way, you’re going to love this new Jungle Book sneak peek!
Whenever I hear Jungle Book, the song comes to mind. You know the one I’m talking about.
“I wanna walk like you, talk like you…shooby-dooby-do-wop.”
Is it stuck in your head yet?

THE JUNGLE BOOK – Bagheera is a sleek panther who feels it’s his duty to help the man-cub depart with dignity when it’s time for him to leave his jungle home. “Bagheera is Mowgli’s adoptive parent,” says Ben Kingsley, who lends his voice to Bagheera. “His role in Mowgli’s life is to educate, to protect and to guide. My Bagheera was military—he’s probably a colonel. He is instantly recognizable by the way he talks, how he acts and what his ethical code is.”

With a great cast of big names, including Sir Ben Kingsley, this new live action re-make of The Jungle Book, a story about a man cub child named Mowgli is going to be another hit. I loved the animated version but after seeing the first Jungle Book sneak peek, and now this new trailer, I am looking forward even more to seeing the new special effects and cinematography that results in such gorgeous and realistic jungle views. (And Scarlett Johansson is in it, too! She’ll always be Black Widow to me but hearing her voice as Kaa, the python, is going to be cool.)
THE JUNGLE BOOK – Kaa is a massive python who uses her voice and hypnotic gaze to entrance Mowgli. The man-cub can’t resist her captivating embrace. “Kaa seduces and entraps Mowgli with her storytelling,” says Scarlett Johansson. “She’s the mirror into Mowgli’s past. The way she moves is very alluring, almost coquettish.”
