Neel Sethi

Neel is the 10-year-old kid who will be playing as Mowgli in the new Disney version of 'The Jungle Book'. The New Yorker has no previous experience as an actor. The filming had him playing the part alone, as his partners (stars of the size as Ben Kingsley and Scarlett Johansson) put their voices to the animals that will be designed via CGI.

Neel was picked to play Mowgli because of his charisma and intelligence, although he hadn't any experience as an actor. He was chosen after a casting that took place in the USA, the UK, New Zealand and Canada.

In his official twitter account, he says to like any sports.
