Walt Disney Pictures has officially released the “Hibernation” clip from their live-action Jungle Book movie.
In it, Mowgli (Seel Nathi) tells Bagheera (Ben Kingsley) that he can’t come with him because he is helping Baloo (Bill Murray) “get ready for hibernation.” Bagheera informs the young boy he’s been duped. “Bears don’t hibernate in a jungle,” he says.

The Jungle Book – Official “Hibernation” Movie… by comicbookdotcom
Based on Rudyard Kipling’s timeless stories and inspired by Disney’s classic animated film, The Jungle Book is an all-new live-action epic adventure about Mowgli (newcomer Neel Sethi), a man-cub who’s been raised by a family of wolves. But Mowgli finds he is no longer welcome in the jungle when fearsome tiger Shere Khan, who bears the scars of Man, promises to eliminate what he sees as a threat. Urged to abandon the only home he’s ever known, Mowgli embarks on a captivating journey of self-discovery, guided by panther-turned-stern mentor Bagheera, and the free-spirited bear Baloo. Along the way, Mowgli encounters jungle creatures who don’t exactly have his best interests at heart, including Kaa, a python whose seductive voice and gaze hypnotizes the man-cub, and the smooth-talking King Louie, who tries to coerce Mowgli into giving up the secret to the elusive and deadly red flower: fire.
The Jungle Book opens in theaters April 15, 2016.
