It would've been amazing if he sang as shere Khan in Jungle Book 2, I think we would've gotten a song that would've essentially been Be Prepared + Hellfire and that would've been Heavenly hellish.
George Sanders will always be my favorite. He has a certain quality in his rendition that most Shere Khan’s do not have. That sense of complete control. He clearly hates man, but he is so good at hiding it, until the opportunity to lash out finally occurs. Tony Jay did an amazing job at capturing some of that same quiet yet intimidating ferocity. Both Benedict Cumberbatch and Idris Elba bring out different shades of the character that must be appreciated. These four actors capture the combined spirit of the fear-inspiring tiger. The others pale by comparison. Sherman Howard and Jim Cummings do make a passing grade, but just barely. Although I very much like Roddy McDowall as an actor, his rendition is probably among the worst. Bill Lee gets an honorable mention because he was the singing voice of George Sanders’ Shere Khan, and so should be counted with Sanders.
Shout out to Bill Lee for that excellent singing part. When I think of Sher Khan I often remember that particular part where he interrupts the buzzards song with his own singing voice.

George Sanders had the regality of Shere Khan. Idris Elba had the ferocity of Shere Khan. Tony Jay had the cunning of Shere Khan. Somewhere in the middle of all of that, is the perfect Shere Khan from the book.
George Sanders, Tony Jay, Idris Elba and Benedict Cumberbatch are my favourite voices. Jason Marsden even though it’s his Nermal voice he did good as his child form
Tony Jay is definitely going for a George Sanders impression, so it makes sense that the comments are rating them similarly. And the "foppish yet dangerous" vibe is quite interesting. But I really liked Cumberbatch's performance. It felt like Shere Khan was constantly seething with rage, especially with the way that his voice changes into a snarl for certain vowel sounds. To me, that seems far more overtly dangerous.
George Sanders, Tony Jay, Benedict Cumberbatch.. The first two are regal villains. Cumberbatch manages to suggest deep seated pain behind Shere Khan's rage. He's a maimed tiger, a man-eater by necessity, as in the book. Sort of Shakespeare's version of Richard III in tiger form,
I think Sherman Howard gives an underrated vocal performance as Shere Khan. He nails George Sanders' deadpan humor, while also adding his own menace to the role.
To be completely honest- my very favorite voices of Shere Khan are George Sanders, Thurl Ravenscroft, Bill Lee, Roddy McDowall, Jason Marsden, Sherman Howard and Benedict Cumberbatch.
george sanders, tony jay, idris elba and benedict cumberbatch are just simply SO excellent. i can't even choose my favorite out of those, maybe george sanders because he's just so iconic, but those 4 are definitely my favorites of all time
George Sanders and Tony Jay: polite and suave, yet still intimidating. Idris Elba: Imposing crime boss. Benedict Cumberbatch: Nightmarish demon from hell.

You missed one. Candy Candido. He provided the roars in the original 1967 film. He also did Bagheera's roars as well and has been in a number of other Disney projects including: Peter Pan, Robin Hood and The Great Mouse Detective.
@@DogOfHades Ah, yes. Clearly the only reason he said Benedict Cumberbatch is because he knows who he is; and not based off of his performance or a personal preference. You're a fucking dick.

1)Best Shere Khan voice actor Benedict Cumberbatch 2)Best Shere Khan design Mowgli: legend of the jungle or maybe the jungle book (2016) 3)Best Shere Khan motivation Mowgli's Brothers Best Shere Khan character Mowgli: legends of the jungle My favorite Shere Khan is Benedict Cumberbatch. He was great as Smaug Fantastic as Doctor strange Miss cast in The Grinch (2018) Fantastic job of Mowgli legend of the jungle as Shere Khan
1:55 Jean Fontaine is my most favourite voice actor for Shere Khan. And the Shere Khan from "Jungle Book Shonen Mowgli" is my most, most, most, most, most, most, most favourite Shere Khan design. 6:13 Oh and I love Idris Elba's voice as Shere Khan too.
Shere khan from the Mowgli is so scary it is scariest version of him. Benedict Cumberbatch in original english and Jackie Shroff in my native hindi make him sound like a villian
Shere khan voice actors From the original Disney film Geogre Sanders to the Netflix original movie with Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor strange/the 2018 Grinch himself)
George Sanders (RIP) & Tony Jay(RIP) were the best voices for the villian tiger Shere Khan... For that singing the best voices were Bill Lee(RIP) & Thurl Ravescroft (RIP)
Gotta be Tony Jay for me. His voice was among the first unique voices I heard when I was little upon watching Jungle Book 2 and it's stuck by me since!
For me, what's notable isn't just the voice, but the *direction*. Most of them sound hammy to me. George Sanders, Tony Jay, Idris Elba, Benedict Cumberbatch. All carrying varying degrees of the right stuff: eloquence, authority and menace.
Idris Elba as Shere Khan: Does my face not remind you of what a grown man can do? You see your hunting ground for a few years and everyone forgets how the law works. Well, let me remind you a man-cub becomes man and man is forbidden. Oh, I'm deeply respectful of these laws to keep us safe, so here's my promise, nothing lasts forever.
George Sanders and Tony Jay. They have a voice that sounds so sinister. Like they'd cut you just to watch you bleed. Everyone else is trying too hard. Cumberbatch came in 3rd.
The Gospel, which means the Good News is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world. The one God is a trinity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Son came and laid down his own life to save ours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him. John 1:1,14 KJV In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and THE WORD WAS GOD. [14] And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us, 1 John 3:8 KJV He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Isaiah 9:6 KJV For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and THE WORLD KNEW HIM NOT. John 3:18 KJV He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
George Sanders did it best... but what bothers me is no one pronounces Mowgli right. There's a whole section in the book with pronunciations and it's Mow (like cow) so says the book. Moe-glee does sound better, but it's not right.
