The Legend of Tarzan is indeed a Warner Bros. Pictures adventure film directed by David Yates as well as released in 2016. It really is based on such a fictitious figure created by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Alexander Skarsgrd, Samuel L. Jackson, Margot Robbie, Djimon Hounsou, Jim Broadbent, as well as Christoph Waltz star in the movie, which was written by Adam Cozad and Craig Brewer and stars Alexander Skarsgrd as the title character and Samuel L. Jackson, Margot Robbie, Djimon Hounsou, Jim Broadbent, and Christoph Waltz in supporting roles. Its plot involves John Clayton (Tarzan), who, after relocating to London, is persuaded by George Washington Williams to return to his previous home in the African jungles to look into slavery charges.
Principal photography began on June 21, 2014, and ended four months later at Warner Bros. Leavesden Studios in the United Kingdom.
On June 29, 2016, the movie debuted at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, and then on July 1, 2016, this was released theatrically inside the United States in 2D, 3D, IMAX, and IMAX 3D. It made $356 million worldwide on such a $180 million budget, and reviewers gave it mixed reviews.
Rupert Gregson-Williams composed the movie’s soundtrack. WaterTower Music published the soundtrack on June 16, 2016, and then on June 24, 2016, it was released on CD. Additional music is credited to Tony Clarke, Thomas Farnon, and Tom Howe. “Better Love,” a song by Hozier, is used in the movie’s end credits.
Since at least 2003, a new version of The Legend of Tarzan has been in the works, having John August penning the script, followed by John Collee in 2006, having Guillermo del Toro planned to helm. Del Toro pulled outside to focus on “The Hobbit,” and by 2008, it was claimed that a new version of “Tarzan” had been in the works, co-written by Stephen Sommers and Stuart Beatle and said to be based on the Pirates of the Caribbean series. Craig Brewer, who also reworked a draft of the film, was supposed to helm the picture in 2011, however, that plan fell through. Instead, in 2012, David Yates was chosen to direct. Susanna White and Gary Ross were among the other directors in the running. The project was believed to have briefly halted in April 2013 owing to funding difficulties.
