The Jungle Book.
Belonging takes more than fitting in.
Raised by wolves, Mowgli must leave his home when the tiger Shere Khan threatens him. Traveling with Bagheera and befriending Baloo, he discovers that his human ingenuity may have a place in the jungle.
Watch the official trailer ↗Why it’s a little special
Convincing animal effects make the forest feel vast and immediate. The familiar friendships gain weight in an adventure that treats a child's resourcefulness as a strength.
BEFORE YOU PRESS PLAY
Know the story.
Know your little people.
Realistic animal attacks, deaths, a threatening snake and a large fire. A tiger repeatedly threatens a child; the danger is substantially more intense than the animated version.
Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
