'''''The Jungle Book''''' (or ''Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book'') is a 1994 film directed by [[Stephen Sommers]], loosely based on [[Rudyard Kipling]]'s ''[[The Jungle Book (novel)|The Jungle Book]]'' and starring [[Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story|Jason Scott Lee]] as Mowgli.
A Walt Disney Pictures film, it includes several shout-outs to Disney's [[The Jungle Book (Disney film)|animated film version]], including an orangutan nicknamed "King Louis".
Line 7:
Not to be confused with ''[[Jungle Book (film)|Jungle Book]]'', the 1942 film starring [[The Thief of Bagdad|Sabu]] as Mowgli.

* [[Anti-Villain]]: Shere Khan. He's a ruthless killer, but he kills only to preserve the law of the jungle. In the end, he even accepts Mowgli in the jungle and makes him the new keeper of the jungle law.
* [[Blond Guys Are Evil]]: Captain Boone.
Line 49:
** {{spoiler|Buldeo ran off and left Mowgli's father to die.}}

=== Tropes related to ''The Jungle Book: Mowgli's Story'' (1998 live-action movie): ===
* [[Live Action Adaptation]]: Of the [[Disney Animated Canon]] film.
* [[Shown Their Work]]: Sort of. Despite retaining similar [[Denser and Wackier|whimsical characterizations and dialogue]] as the animated version, it is the closest Disney has got to an accurate adaption of the original book, with a lot more scenes and references from the novel.
