Mowgli

Director Andy Serkis

Genre Adventure | Drama | Family

Cast Christian Bale, Kate Blanchett, Benedict Cumberbatch, Naomi Harris

Rating PG-13

Release Date December 7th, 2018 (Netflix & Limited Theaters)

“A human child raised by wolves, must face off against a menacing tiger named Shere Khan, as well as his own origins.”

From veteran actor turned director Andy Serkis, Mowgli is a much darker version of the live-action film The Jungle Book (2016). The film was originally slated to release in 2016 but the release was delayed to 2018 after news broke that Disney would be releasing The Jungle Book. The cast includes Christian Bale, Kate Blanchett, Benedict Cumberbatch, Naomi Harris, Andy Serkis, and Matthew Rhys. Check out the official trailer below!! 

Ted Takes Fun Facts, Mowgli:

• Andy Serkis directs the film and provides the voice of Baloo.

• This is the third time Christian Bale has provided voice work for a non live-action role in his career. He previously played Thomas in Pocahontas (1995) and Howl in the English version of Howl's Moving Castle (2004).

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.

“Jonathan leaves the office everyday at noon. When he gets home, he goes to sleep. Every morning he wakes up and there is a breakfast prepared for him along with a video telling him about the second part of his day.”

From director Bill Oliver, his directorial debut, Jonathan is a sci-fi drama about a man who essentially lives as two separate people. Jonathan leaves the office everyday at noon and goes to bed as soon as he gets home, waking the next morning to a prepared breakfast and a video telling him about the second part of his day.
