Andy Serkis -- best known for his motion capture performances as Gollum in The Lord of the Rings and Caesar in Rise of the Planet of the Apes -- is now set to direct Warner Bros.' live-action Jungle Book movie. Serkis will be filling in for Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, who stepped down from the project due to scheduling conflicts.
With Serkis on-board to direct, Warners is now back in the Jungle Book race with Disney, which has their own live-action adaptation of the story coming out. That version is being directed by Jon Favreau, with Idris Elba starring as the villainous Shere Khan.
