I can't believe this began shooting three years ago. Geez.

No different to Tintin which was two and a half years between shooting and completion. WB delaying the project didn't help.

When will we receive the trailer for this? I’m hoping soon!

Well, Tintin didn’t have to contend with Disney’s Tintin makes near 1 billion!

 

But, it was the smart move on WBs part.  WB must be super happy about Lion King cause if Disney actually did Jungle Book 2and That was opening near this...shit.

Wasn't this movie announced before the Jungle book ? Haven't finished yet

It been finished for awhile. Since Disney one did so well, WB is delaying it.

The scenes from #Mowgli at #Cinemacon looked outstanding and clearly something #WarnerBros, @andyserkis, and team should be proud of. I hope #audiences will watch this independent from #Disney #JungleBook but fear they will not be able to, which would be a shame for both films

First teaser for #Mowgli is dark, intense, scary, tribal feeling. Definitely different from the Disney version - equally as impressive with the effects#CinemaCon

Never mind Aquaman, when is WB going to release the first trailer for Mowgli?

May be today, who knows...

WB set things on fire with IT decimating Sept-Oct records and wonder if they are going with the 'horror' (scary, dark, gritty) angle. That also does a very good job of differentiating with Disney's version.

 

(Mowgli, FB2, AQM in Oct, Nov, Dec for WB. They could end the year on a big high. EDIT: Smallfoot in late September. I am hoping that becomes a sleeper hit. The trailer was adorable but that's a subject for a different thread.)

It's clear that given how long post production has taken, the animals are going to look more realistic than the ones in TJB '16. I'm convinced Serkis can pull it off.

I wonder if we are all sleeping on this one or if this one will really flop simply because it will feel like it's too soon for the GA.

It s not the first time Hollywood releases two very similar films, this movie can be successful but not on the scale of JB.

Disney has that fairy tale tone nailed each time.

 

Warner goes for dark & gritty all the time so we ll see.

 

Budget must be very high tho, these kind of photo real CGI, not cheap.

It's not all just been for post production, eventually they just delayed it by a long period just so it would be further away from Jungle Book's release.

I saw the footage. It looked very dark and unfortunately the effects didn't look as good as The Jungle Book.  

 

Sorry to say, but this one simply doesn't have a chance to do all that well domestically.
