Walt Disney releases an interactive video of ‘The Jungle Book’

The Walt Disney Studios has released an interactive 360 video and virtual reality experience inspired by its upcoming live-action adaptation of The Jungle Book — exclusively on Facebook.

Viewers are plopped into Mowgli's metaphorical shoes as he meets the mesmerizing snake Kaa (voiced by Scarlett Johannson) for the first time in "Through Mowgli's Eyes Part 1: Trust in Me," which arrived on The Jungle Book Facebook page Thursday and is available as a VR experience in select AMC IMAX theaters across the country.

The "Mowgli" VR tour in IMAX will hit AMC Theatres in Los Angeles, Houston and Boston (3/24-3/27); San Diego, Kansas City and New York (4/1-4/3); San Francisco, Chicago and Philadelphia (4/8-4/10); Seattle, Minneapolis and Washington D.C. (4/14-4/17).
