Metro Manila (CNN Philippines) — Welcome to the Jungle.
The first trailer for Disney’s live-action version of The Jungle Book has been released, and it’s worlds apart from the animated movie that debuted in 1967.
Based on the classic novel of the same name by Rudyard Kipling, The Jungle Book tells the story of a young boy named Mowgli, a man-cub raised by a family of wolves. Despite having gown up in the jungle, Mowgli’s life is put in danger as the tiger Shere Khan sees him as a threat.
As Mowgli evades the tiger, he goes on a journey guided by Bagheera, a panther, and Baloo, a bear. Along the way he meets other residents of the jungle – including some who do not exactly have the best intentions for the young boy.
