The Jungle Book 2 (2003), dir. Steve Trenbirth.
Disney’s The Jungle Book was first released on October 18, 1967.
Walt Disney died during production of this film. Many people wondered at what the studio’s fate would be, particularly the animation division. The film performed extremely well at the box office, ensuring that the animators would not be put out of work. Had the film failed, it is likely that animation would have been closed down at the Disney studio. (x)

The Jungle Book (1967)
Many strange legends are told of these jungles of India, but none so strange as the story of a small boy named Mowgli. It all began when the silence of the jungle was broken by an unfamiliar sound. It was a sound like one never heard before in this part of the jungle. It was a man cub! Had I known how deeply I was to be involved, I would’ve obeyed my first impulse and walked away.
