Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Disney's Deep Canvas software was invented for this film, letting 2D characters move through 3D-painted environments.
The film notably omits Tarzan's 'lord of the jungle' colonial nobility from the original novels, softening Burroughs' problematic source material.
