So in the trailer for The Jungle Book we see King Louie…and through an article John Favreau states that he is in fact not an orangutan but an extinct ape by the name of Gigantopithecus.
This was done because orangutans do not, in fact, live in India. But Gigantopithecus did.
I love the idea of this giant living fossil leading a community of monkeys who view him as a god.
Holy crap…
