Christopher Walken will voice King Louie, the ruler of a troop of monkeys and apes, and Giancarlo Esposito will play Akela, leader of the wolf pack, in Disney‘s Jungle Book. It’s the latest edition to the live-action/animation hybrid pic, which Jon Favreau is directing from a script by Justin Marks. The duo join Ben Kingsley as Bagheera, Lupita Nyong’o as Raksha, Idris Elba as Shere Khan, Scarlett Johansson as Kaa and newcomer Neel Sethi as Mowgli – the only actor to physically appear on screen. The 3D pic has an October 9, 2015 release date.
I’ve never seen the Jungle Book. Maybe I’ll give this a shot though

Winnie the Pooh voiced the snake in the animated movie.
All magic comes with a price!
Keeper of FelixEsposito not as bad guy nor mislead guy. Joins an interesting cast. Had no idea that Johansson is cast as Kaa, nice. As kid I wanted Kaa as friend (I was that weird).
¯\_(?????? ?)_/¯
Not only is Christopher Walken “Hook”, he’s also going to be King Louie.
The last time we had a live action Jungle Book movie was in 1994. [x]

I really hope we get to hear Christopher Walken sing “Wanna Be Like You.”
Can he sing or does it not matter? I know he can dance. He was in a music video a while back.

This is for the 2016 movie, not the 2015 one.
Cumberbatch vs Elba for Shere Khan
(and yes, this is blatant self advertisement….sorry)
