The Walt Disney Studios has released a quick voice featurette for Jon
Favreau's retelling of author Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book featuring the
entire main cast of the movie.
Opening in theaters on April 15, The Jungle Book stars Neel Sethi, Christopher
Walken, Bill Murray, Ben Kingsley, Giancarlo Esposito, Lupita Nyong’o, Scarlett
Johansson, and Idris Elba.
“The Jungle Book” is an all-new live-action epic adventure about Mowgli
(newcomer Neel Sethi), a man-cub who’s been raised by a family of wolves. But
Mowgli finds he is no longer welcome in the jungle when fearsome tiger Shere
Khan (voice of Idris Elba), who bears the scars of Man, promises to eliminate
what he sees as a threat.
Urged to abandon the only home he’s ever known, Mowgli embarks on a
captivating journey of self-discovery, guided by panther-turned-stern mentor
Bagheera (voice of Ben Kingsley), and the freespirited bear Baloo (voice of
Bill Murray). Along the way, Mowgli encounters jungle creatures who don’t
exactly have his best interests at heart, including Kaa (voice of Scarlett
Johannsson), a python whose seductive voice and gaze hypnotizes the man-cub,
and the smooth-talking King Louie (voice of Christopher Walken), who tries to
coerce Mowgli into giving up the secret to the elusive and deadly red flower:
fire.
The all-star cast
also includes Lupita Nyong'o as the voice of the fiercely protective mother
wolf Raksha, and Giancarlo Esposito as the voice of wolf pack’s alpha male
Akela. “The Jungle Book” seamlessly blends live-action with photorealistic CGI
animals and environments, using up-to-the-minute technology and storytelling
techniques to immerse audiences in an enchanting and lush world.
