Mowgli has been living in the man-village with his little stepbrother Ranjan and his best friend Shanti. But the man-cub still has that jungle rhythm in his heart, and he misses his old buddies Baloo and Bagheera. When Mowgli wanders back to the wild for some swingin' fun, he soon finds the man-eating tiger Shere Khan is lurking in the shadows and planning his revenge.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Tony Jay's final performance as Shere Khan before his death in 2006. The man gave his all to a direct-to-video sequel.
The original 1967 Jungle Book was Walt Disney's final film; this sequel embodies everything he tried to avoid.
