Plot Summary Of Jungle Book 2016, Its Starring And Production
The Jungle Book 2016 film was produced by Walt Disney Pictures and written by Justin Marks. The lead character in this movie is Mowgli who is an orphan boy raised and led by animals in the jungle.
Shere Khan is the main protagonist in the movie. The different animated characters in the movie are voiced by Scarlett Johanson, Ben Kingsly, Bill Murray, Lupita Noyong’o, Idris Elba, Giancarlo Esposito, and Christopher Walken. The movie was a great success and grossed $966 million worldwide which is huge.
The story starts off with an infant orphaned boy brought by Bagheera, a black panther to Raksha so she can look after him. The story is set in the Indian jungle, and Raksha is a female wolf.
The Alpha wolf of the pack is called Akela who is always objecting to the idea of a wolf raising a human. Mowgli, the orphaned boy, has to learn the jungle ways in order to survive, while doing so he almost loses his identity.
The main protagonist is played by Shere khan who is in vengeance with Mowgli. The backstory is: Shere khan was scarred in the face by humans which has turned him into a nemesis to the humans. He threatened to kill Mowgli after the drought season.
Mowgli is worried about his wolf pack, and he decides to run away from the jungle to be with his own kind. Bagheera decides to help and guide him towards human civilization.
During their escapade, Mowgli encounters Shere khan midway where they combat, and Mowgli swiftly manages to escape him. To his trouble, he encounters Kaa, a huge python that is attempting to eat Mowgli.
Kaa hypnotizes Mowgli so that she can easily get control over him. Meanwhile, Mowgli has a recollection of his father in which he is protecting him against Shere khan and gets killed. Kaa is unsuccessful in preying on Mowgli because she is attacked by Baloo who saves the boy. The two become friends almost instantly.
Akela is killed by Shere khan upon learning that Mowgli has escaped and threatens to kill Raksha and her children. Meanwhile, Mowgli and Bagheera are reunited with Bagheera.
Bagheera is upset with Mowgli as to why he hasn’t gone to man village because his presence will disrupt the peace of the jungle. The troubles of Mowgli haven’t ended yet. He is kidnapped by a band of mischievous monkeys and is presented to their king who is a Gigantopithecus named King Louie.
Mowgli is captured by King Louie and asks him to make “the red flower” (fire) in return for which he will offer him protection against Shere khan. Baloo and Bagheera try to protect Mowgli and attempt to sneak him out of that deranged place all in vain.
King Louie sees them and tries to prevent them from sneaking Mowgli out that causing a rampage. In the meantime, Mowgli learns about Akela’s death from King Louie and the chaotic rampage that causes the temple’s destruction.
Mowgli is saddened by the death of Akela and seeks revenge on Shere khan. He steals a tiki torch from a man’s village and goes out for Shere khan. He accidentally puts some part of the jungle on fire that provokes the animals. Mowgli throws the torch into the river to seek the animals’ trust in him.
After that, he starts a feud with shere khan and successfully kills him by luring him on top of a weakened tree which breaks with his weight, and Shere Khan falls into a burning fire. Mowgli returns to the jungle and leads a life according to his own will, while Raksha becomes a female Alpha and starts to lead the pack.
The Jungle Book 2 2024
It seems like people have grown tired of waiting so long for The Jungle Book 2 2024 but we are hoping that it will come out in 2024. After the huge success of the jungle book part one, it was announced by the producers that there will be a second part to it. The official release date is still unknown but we can only hope it comes out this year.
The production team has also unveiled that the story of The Jungle Book 2 2024 will be inspired by Rudyard Kipling’s original Jungle book series. Unfortunately, there isn’t an official trailer about the second part as of now even after 5 years have passed.
However, we can only assume the story. The second part might take a twist and shows how a female Alpha is leading a wolf pack.
Moreover, there isn’t any great movie without a protagonist. We might see more new characters and a protagonist in the new movie. In addition to that, Mowgli and his wolf siblings have now grown into adults so there might be disagreements and rivalries between them. Moreover, Mowgli sees a reflection of his father in the first part when Kaa hypnotizes him. There must be a fire of curiosity burning in his heart that can lead him into explorations.
Mowgli also suffers from an identity crisis because he isn’t from the animal world. It isn’t evident in the first part, but the identity crisis is real and he often fails to learn animal ways. He is also seen carrying on with his human tricks and ways at the end of the first part which means he will never cease to be a human.
We can assume that Mowgli may set out to seek his parents and human siblings and might reunite with them. Again these are all assumptions, we will only know when the movie is really out. One thing we know is that Neel Sethi played Mowgli the jungle book 2.
