He has proven time and time again that he knows how to deliver fantastic computer-generated performances with his roles in projects like War for the Planet of the Apes and Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and Mowgli looks no different.
Another thing worth paying attention to in this trailer for Mowgli is the strength of the CGI work.
The landscapes are sweeping and exotic, and the mo-cap performances of the animals look absolutely brilliant.
That said, considering how new he is to the realm of directing, the fact that Mowgli seems as polished as it does is something to behold.
