At the recent Netflix event See What’s Next Asia in Singapore, director Andy Serkis spoke about the upcoming epic action-adventure film. He shared, “You can’t tell this story to the world without acknowledging that this character is from India, and Rudyard Kipling (the writer of Mowgli) was from India. He was a child of British India and had a particular set of values. And you have to reinterpret the values and underpin the story in that manner.”

Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle starts streaming from December 7 on Netflix.
