Genius Products has announced the November 21st DVD release of the Kong: Return to the Jungle, the only Kong feature film ever produced with 3-D computer animation.  Kong: Return to the Jungle, which was produced by the German animation house BKN, continues the franchise based on Universal's classic 1933 King Kong film.  In this version one of the great ape's descendants and some his fellow island creatures are transported to a special zoo in Manhattan where the usual captivity-based problems ensue.

 

Producer Rick Ungar (X-Men, Spider-Man, Fantastic Four) is supervising production of Kong: Return to the Jungle, which like an increasing number of animated features is heading directly to DVD (MSRP $19.95).
