Mowgli the "man-cub" returns to the wilderness in this sequel to the
Walt Disney Pictures animated favorite
The Jungle Book. After leaving life in the jungle behind,
Mowgli (voice of
Haley Joel Osment) has been adopted, and now lives in the nearby village with his new parents and his younger brother, while becoming close friends with
Shanti (voice of
Mae Whitman), the girl who first lured him out of the wilds. However, adjusting to live among other humans hasn't been easy, and after
Mowgli pays a visit to an old friend, happy-go-lucky bear
Baloo (
John Goodman), the boy considers staying for a while. Before long, both
Shanti and
Mowgli's new family notice he's missing, and
Shanti goes into the jungle to look for him, despite her fear of wild animals. However,
Mowgli and
Baloo are soon reminded that life in the wilderness isn't always carefree when they learn
Shere Khan (voice of
Tony Jay) is looking for
Mowgli, eager to settle an old score.
The Jungle Book 2 also features voice work from
Phil Collins and
John Rhys-Davies;
rock group
Smash Mouth contribute a new version of
"I Wanna Be Like You" to the soundtrack.
