17:46Now PlayingIn this episode of Vice Talks Film we sit down with Jon Favreau to discuss his extensive career in Hollywood, harnessing creativity as a screenwriter, and the challenges he faced recreating a classic animated film for today's audience.
Nearly half a century after the original animated film was released, director Jon Favreau has remade Walt Disney Pictures' THE JUNGLE BOOK, now with a live-action Mowgli, the man cub, and a cast of CGI animals played by such stars as Bill Murray (Baloo, the bear), Ben Kingsley (Bagheera, the panther), Christopher Walken (King Louie, the enormous ape), and Scarlett Johansson (Kaa, the python).
