The majority of the tales focus on Mowgli, a young boy raised by wolves whose friends include a bear named Baloo and a panther by the name of Bagheera. They also encounter a tiger adversary named Shere Khan (Idris Elba will both mo-cap perform and provide the voice).
Nyong'o would do the same playing Rakcha, the wolf who takes in the orphan Mogwli. ScarJo will portray the sling python Kaa.
Justin Marks will write the script for "Iron Man" director Jon Favreau.
Robert Legato ("Avatar") will oversee the motion capture elements in the film
Since the property is in the public domain, Warner Bros is developing its own version with Harry Potter film series writer Steve Kloves working on the script. Filmmaker Alejandro González Iñárritu had been attached to direct, but he left over scheduling conflicts. Now motion capture actor Andy Serkis is set to direct that version
