I know I've done it already, but I thought about posting a different version of my Tarzan remake. This remake will have story elements from Edgar Rice Burroughs's original book, the animated 1999 movie, and the Disney Broadway production. After being shipwrecked on the African coast with his parents, who were later killed by a leopard, a human baby is found and rescued by a gorilla named Kala, who lost her own baby to the same leopard. Despite the objections of Kerchak, Kala's husband and the leader of the apes tribe (because he has a bad history with humans), Kala raises the child as her own and names her "Tarzan." As a child, he gets mocked by the kid gorillas calling him a "hairless wonder" and would sometimes get in trouble with Kerchak, but as a strong and handsome adult, he becomes the protector of the apes and (unofficially) the "king of the jungle." One day, a group of explorers from England, led by eccentric Professor Porter and skilled hunter Clayton, come to the jungle to study gorillas. Upon discovery, Tarzan grows fond of the professor's daughter, Jane, and eventually visits their camp and learn the ways of human civilization. But now, Tarzan is caught between two worlds and wonders where he truly belongs.
