So, the studio comes out to be making a major effort to differentiate the movie from Disney’s 2016 hit. It was “The Jungle Book,” and generates $966 million in the worldwide box office. The CGI footage for “Mowgli” features genuinely threatening beasts. As there is the malicious tiger Shere Khan that’s voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch, who declares, “My, my, how you’ve grown.” on 21 May 2018, the comedy-free trailer launches with Mowgli imprisoned in a wooden cage.
Here we see that he’s told by his friend Bagheera, “I looked you in the eye and saw no fear when you were a cub.” As it’s featured a winning Bill Murray as Baloo the Bear belting out “The Bare Necessities”, there’s none of the light comic tones of “The Jungle Book”. While adding to his extensive resume for CGI characters after playing Gollum in “The Lord of the Rings” films and Caesar in the recent “Planet of the Apes” trilogy Serkis is portraying Baloo in this version.
In the Mowgli movie, the other stars are Rohan Chand as Mowgli, Matthew Rhys, and Freida Pinto, with motion capture performances by Cate Blanchett and Naomie Harris in addition to Cumberbatch, Bale, and Serkis.
