Andy Serkis says his Jungle Book: Origins film is a more genuine adaptation of the classic novel, and was shot using motion capture.
“Also [our Jungle Book] is made for an older audience — it’s not for 5 year olds, it’s not for Disney family ages.
Jungle Book: Origins is expected to hit theaters October 19, 2018.
A combination of bad timing and a bit of bad luck have the Serkis-helmed film following the hugely successful Disney version that was released in 2016.
