The Second Jungle Book: Mowgli & Baloo is a 1997 adventure film starring Jamie Williams and Roddy McDowall. The film was adapted for the screen by Matthew Hortona and Bayard Johnson.

In this film, Mowgli (Jamie Williams) is pursued by a circus scout named Harrison (played by Bill Campbell) who wants to take him to the "civilized" world as a circus attraction for P.T. Barnum. Harrison hires a local grandee Buldeo (played by Gulshan Grover) to track Mowgli down, only to find out that Mowgli is his nephew and the only obstacle to him taking his late brother's estate.

During the making of the movie, Jamie Williams was bitten in the foot by a chimpanzee. The bandage on his foot shows in some scenes in the widescreen version.
