AceShowbiz - Walt Disney Pictures has released an international trailer for "The Jungle Book", a live-action remake of the 1967 animated classic. The new trailer offers some new footage which gives a look at the imaginary jungle along with numerous animated animals.
The new footage includes an emotional moment between Mowgli and a white wolf who embrace in the rain. Another footage shows the young boy running across a bridge while carrying a torch.
Although the film is full of CGI, it looks spectacular. Almost all of the animals and environments were created by CG. It is not surprising that there aren't many dialogues in the movie, because most of the characters are animals. However, at the end of the trailer, fans are shown that python Ka, voiced by Scarlett Johansson, is able to speak.
"The Jungle Book" centers on Mowgli (Neel Sethi), a man-cub who's been raised by a family of wolves. He finds he's no longer welcome in the jungle when the fearsome tiger Shere Khan (voiced by Idris Elba) promises to eliminate what he views 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 (voiced by Ben Kingsley).
The movie also stars Christopher Walken as the smooth-talking orangutan King Louie, Lupita Nyong'o as the protective mother wolf Raksha and Giancarlo Esposito as the wolf pack's alpha male Akela. Based on Rudyard Kipling's timeless stories, "The Jungle Book" is scheduled for a U.S. release on April 15, 2016.
