The movie will hit theaters on July 19, 2019, and according to the images we see in the trailer, those who loved the original version, that dates back to 1994, probably won’t be disappointed.
Directed by Jon Favreau, the 2019 version makes use of all the latest CGI technologies, giving an almost photorealistic look to its characters.
