Next month Disney will release their live action version of THE JUNGLE BOOK, and we cannot wait!! Today I’m sharing a new clip from the film, but first I want to remind you to follow the hashtags #JungleBook and #JungleBookEvent as some of my awesome bloggy friends head to LA to walk the red carpet at the film’s premiere and interview some of the cast!
See that amazing photo above of Idris Elba posting with Shere Khan? Idris voices the bengal tiger who bears the scars of man, which fuel his hatred of humans. He is convinced that Mowgli poses a threat, and is determined to rid the jungle of the man-cub. “Shere Khan reigns with fear,” says Elba. “He terrorizes everyone he encounters because he comes from a place of fear.”
Catch the clip below to see how Mowgli and audiences meet the tiger…
Intro to Shere Khan Clip
As just a reminder, don’t forget to check out the super fun activity sheets all about the film! Be sure to download, print, and enjoy with your little Jungle fans.
We have “Spot the Difference” as well as a fun twisting and turning maze to enjoy! Plus, don’t forget to check out the Hexaflexagons. My son loved those ones the best.

Based on Rudyard Kipling’s timeless stories and inspired by Disney’s 1967 animated classic, the film features state-of the-art technology that immerses audiences in the lush world like never before.
