The Jungle Book


The Jungle Book Information

The Jungle Book is a 2010 3D CGI animated TV series.

This series is based on the original book by Rudyard Kipling.

In June 2012, the first season of the series aired in the U.S. on Disney XD and was removed in the same year.

Production

Tapaas Chakravarti, Chairman & CEO of DQ Entertainment, says: "The second season of Jungle Book was a simple decision after the tremendous success of the first season and the inherent demand by the global broadcasting community. Jungle Book already has a tremendous fan following and has created the need to see more and more of Mowgli and his jungle friends by the kids. We are confident that the second season will also be a tremendous commercial success. It will be followed by a TV Movie special, a Christmas special, a Halloween special and many other spin-offs. The partnership with ZDF is symbiotic in the sense that we are producing several other projects with them."

In 2012, DQ Entertainment announced a 3D feature film based on the animated series for release in 2014. The film is produced by Tapaas Chakravarti, and directed by Jun Falkenstein and Kevin Johnson.

Plot

Characters

  • Mowgli (voiced by Emma Tate) - A young Man-cub raised by wolves in the jungle, He has a tiger claw which he keeps as a pendant after he took it from a battle from the man-eating tiger Shere Khan. The son of Akela.
  • Bagheera - A black panther. He is Mowgli's best friend. Unlike his counterpart in the Disney film, Bagheera is not very strict, like in the book.
