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.
1: George Sanders 2: Benedict Cumberbatch 3: Tony Jay 4: Idris Elba 5: Bill Lee 6: Roddy McDowall 7: Jim Cummings 8: Sherman Howard 9: Jason Marsden 10: Scott McNeil 11: Thurl Ravenscroft 12: David Holt 13: Michael Donovan 14: Jean Fontaine 15: Tim Simmons
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.
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, 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
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.
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.
@@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.
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, 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.
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
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.

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)
George Sanders and Tony Jay: polite and suave, yet still intimidating. Idris Elba: Imposing crime boss. Benedict Cumberbatch: Nightmarish demon from hell.
1. George Sanders (The Jungle Book {1967}). 2. Roddy McDowall (Mowgli’s Brothers). 3. Jean Fontaine (The Jungle Book {1989}). 4. Jason Marsden (Jungle Cubs). 5. Scott McNeil (Adventures of Mowgli) 6.

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.
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
George Sanders is the unmatchable classic in the role and I wouldn't be surprised if a recollection of his "Shere Khan" had helped inspire the decision over 40 years later to ask Benedict Cumberbatch to voice "Smaug" in Jackson's "The Hobbit" trilogy.
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!
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 and Tony Jay have no comparison and as far as Idris Elba I don't think the african accent really goes in india, he would be better suited for acar in lion king
Idris Elba isn't doing an 'African accent', it's a British accent (Idris is British, although of African descent) - but it's more of a regular person's accent, not the upper-class received pronunciation accent of Sanders and Jay.
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 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.
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 is perfect...his voice carries a certain formality that is both calming and threatening at the same time.
Well said!
Indeed.
Thats because he sounded BRITISH, like those Victorian era generals.
#DYK He played Mr. Freeze in the Adam West *Batman* TV series?
George Sanders and Tony Jay are way better than the rest.
How right you are friend
Nah, George sanders doesn't sound intimidating at all.
idris elba was the best
Bruh Benedict Cumberbatch was also better in my opinion
George Sanders, Benedict Cumberbatch, Idris Elba and Tony Jay.
I agree!👍
1. George Sanders
2.Tony Jay
3. Benedict Cumberbatch
4. Idris Elba
5. Scott McNeill
6. David Holt
7. Sherman Howard
Correct.
Yes
Something uppity about George Sanders voicing in a good way… the character needed that imo
Tony Jays is so simple but incredibly intimidating. By far the best acting
Tony Jay is amazing but I just think of Frollo
@@sonofaballer96I think of the Elder God in Legacy of Kain.
Same
may god rest his soul
Geogre Sanders and Tony Jay are my favourites but the way David Holt says Mowlgli is comedy gold
George Sanders. There's a reason he was cast in the original role. Tony Jay is close. Anything else is silly-talk.
George Sanders and Tony Jay= perfection 🐯
4:55 R.I.P. Tony Jay (1933-2006) Voice of Judge Frollo from Disney's The Hunchback Of Notre Dame an amazing and chilling performance singing Hellfire
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.

Just heard Benedict Cumberbatch playing Shere Khan. That man is good. I think he could have pulled off Scar in the live action Lion King.
Same.
yeah it should have been him
He really REALLY should have done Scar. Plus, Cumberbatch can sing.
Nope, Jeremy irons will always be the best
Cumberbatch's Shere Khan was terrifying. Like some serial killer or cult leader.
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.
Benedict Cumberbatch had the bloodlust of Shere Khan.
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, 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
George sanders,my childhood ❤
Tony Jay- Benedict Cumberbatch- Idris Elba love them all, it's hard to choose from these 3❤️❤️❤️

Everyone mentioned here contributed to this character with great charisma but George Sanders is really unbeatable here! He has such a regal voice! ❤❤❤

Benedict Cumberbatch
I agree
Because you know who he is? George S and Tony Jay were the best
@@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.
@@DogOfHades E porque a voz do Bennie também não o seria? Os 3 são os melhores intérpretes do Shere Khan.
Tony Jay and George Sanders sound similar and I love them both, but Tony Jay edges it out as my favorite.
I just love George Sanders his voice is perfect and very deep it makes me happy RIP George Sanders ❤❤
I'd like it if Tim Curry voiced him
Corey Burton to voice Shere Khan in Disney numerous projects
George Sanders and Tony Jay are the best for me. RIP to both.
Scott McNeil is doing Megatron, Waspinater and Dinobot all at once.
It's actually quite similiar to his Gali.
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.

Esses três também são meus favoritos!❤
George Sanders and Tony Jay are the ones I'd pick! :)
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.
6:47 "My, how you've grown."
Makes me think of scar's cut song scene where he says "Nala! My, how you've grown~" like a pervert.
No one voiced Shere Khan better than George Sanders.
And Tony Jay in the sequel
Tony Jay did.
Yes he did although Rest In Peace for both of them 😢😔

Miss cast in The Grinch (2018)
Fantastic job of Mowgli legend of the jungle as Shere Khan
How is Shere Khan design from Mowgli legend of the jungle is the best he doesn't look like a real tiger
@@awesomegirl5190 well maybe his eyes. And fun facts Andy serkis the director wanted the main character animals to resemble their actors faces.
George Sanders Tony Jay and Idris Eldris and Jason Marsden Just nailed the role so well in my opinion.
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.
George Sanders!!!! Nobody says " I can't be bothered by that" better than him
Yes, that and "I've no time for that sort of nonsense" are my favorite lines.
Original: George Sanders, charming and smooth as a kill...

Elba is my favorite, but Tony is the best one in my opinion. Cumberbatch and Sanders did pretty good too.
George Sanders and Tony Jay: polite and suave, yet still intimidating.
Idris Elba: Imposing crime boss.
Benedict Cumberbatch: Nightmarish demon from hell.
Tony Jay HANDS DOWN is the absolute best! He's so regal yet intimidating.
for some contrast... 01:10 that was what shere khan sounded like then.... 04:09 this is nowadays.
Benedict Cumberbatch is the best. His blood thirsty voice, and menacing presence were amazing!
George Sanders! Paws down!

He's long since passed away, sadly. May he rest in peace.
Shere khan is my childhood nightmare

6:17 Idris Elba is the favourite one❤️
The Voice of Knuckles Voiced Shere Khan?.
Oh wow, didn't know that Bill Lee sang that part and not George Sanders.
Yeah, surprising. It seems like George Sanders would've been able to sing.
George Sanders was the best by far. Tony Jay was purely imitating George's performance.
Idris Elba is awesome.
Heimdall got nothing on Smaug
George Sanders and Bill Lee.
Someone spelled George wrong in the beginning of the video
1. George Sanders
2. Idris Elba & Benedict Cumberbatch
The best 3 are George Sanders, Tony Jay, & Idris Elba
George Sanders and Tony Jay are the perfect Shere Khan for the Jungle book
George Sanders is replicated by Tony Jay the same way Jim Cummings replicates Sterling Holloway.
George Sanders,Thurl Ravenscroft and Tony Jay and Benedict Cumberbatch
Geogre Sanders and Tony Jay
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!
Boris Karloff was considered to play Shere Khan. Would he have done better than George Sanders, or slightly worse?
I think Boris would've been worse. But I'm also biased. 🤷♀️
The original voices were the best and will remain so throughout history.
Tony Jay. Hands down.
im sorry but there is no way a bengal tiger who sounds like george sanders could EVER even SLIGHTLY be trusted.
Tony jay and jim Cummings are both my favorite
The late Donald Gray would have perfect role of Shere Khan
Sherman Howard
Tony Jay
Benedict cumberbatch
George Sanders, Tony Jay, Sherman Howard, and Idro Elba(all Disney voices)
Jim Cummings and Tony Jay
1. George Sanders
2. Tony Jay
3. ... Benedict I guess
4. Everybody else ... especially Idris, especially because he's so mediocre
Idris Elba
Shere khan voice actors
From the original Disney film

George Sanders by a mile, then Tony Jay ; the others have not business voicing Shere Khan.
My favorite Shere Khan (The Jungle Book) voice is Tony Jay
George sanders and Tony Jay have no comparison and as far as Idris Elba I don't think the african accent really goes in india, he would be better suited for acar in lion king
Idris Elba isn't doing an 'African accent', it's a British accent (Idris is British, although of African descent) - but it's more of a regular person's accent, not the upper-class received pronunciation accent of Sanders and Jay.
Shere Khan to appear in Kingdom Hearts see and voice by Corey Burton
Some great ones, some not so great and two fantastic singers near the start.
But nobody quite matches George Sanders.

Sherman’s nice outside the favorites like Tony, Benedict, Idris, etc.
I didn’t realize there was so many.
The ones I liked was George sanders tony jay and Michael Donovan.
George sanders
Tony Jay
In that order
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.
George Sanders and Tony Jay are easily the best......
Não se esqueça que Cumberbatch também foi ótimo!
George Sanders and Tony Jay are in a league of their own, the rest don't even come close.
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. Didn't even listen to the others.😅 However, I see Tony Jay and he is also my fav.😊
Idris Elba! cause his voice is so gruff which is exactly what a real tiger vocal sounds like
I think Tony Jay does it better than George Sanders but both are my top two favorites for Shere Kahn
Benedict cumberbatch
