After what feels like years of discussion, the first trailer has arrived for Andy Serkis’ take on Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle.
Better known as The Jungle Book to many, Mowgli is the first film from acclaimed actor Andy Serkis (Planet of the Apes, Lord of the Rings). The cast includes Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, Benedict Cumberbatch, Andy Serkis, Freida Pinto, Matthew Rhys, and Naomie Harris along with newcomer Rohan Chand.
Acclaimed actor and director Andy Serkis reinvents Rudyard Kipling’s beloved masterpiece, in which a boy torn between two worlds accepts his destiny and becomes a legend. Mowgli has never truly belonged in either the wilds of the jungle or the civilized world of man. Now he must navigate the inherent dangers of each on a journey to discover where he truly belongs.
Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle will have a limited theatrical run starting on Nov. 29, and then will hit Netflix on Dec. 7.
