The Jungle Book is a 2016 American fantasy adventure film directed by Jon Favreau, a photorealistic computer-animated adaptation of both Rudyard Kipling's stories and Disney's 1967 animated classic. Neel Sethi stars as Mowgli, a human boy raised by wolves in the Indian jungle who must flee his home when the tiger Shere Khan, voiced by Idris Elba, declares that a human has no place in the jungle and threatens to kill him. The Jungle Book was a technical landmark — every environment, animal, and natural element was created entirely through CGI, with Neel Sethi the only real element performing against blue screens, yet the result was so photorealistic that audiences genuinely could not distinguish the digital jungle from reality.

The film won the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects. Bill Murray's Baloo, performing a memorable rendition of "The Bare Necessities," brought the film's most joyful moments. The Jungle Book earned $966 million worldwide on a $175 million budget.
