OTHER JUNGLE BOOK COMPARES
Jungle Book

Voice Compare » Jungle Book » Shere Khan

Comparision of the voice over actors who have been the voice of Shere Khan with sound clips and images.
Shere Khan is a tiger and the primary antagonist of the "Jungle Book" series. Shere Khan's arrogance and claim to be the rightful lord of the jungle are compensation for the fact that he was born with a crippled leg and was derided as "lame" by his own mother. Shere Khan aims to kill Mowgli, whom he attempted to hunt down as an infant.

This is tough, Jay and Sanders both nail Shere Kahn's personality, I really their deep, British and villainous voices... but alas I vote for Tony on this one because George sounds a little too deep and gruff.

Thurl makes a good singing voice. But Jason was HORRIBLE: no British accent and just plain creepy as Shere Kahn!

I prefer Jay Sanders sounds too Russian than British

George Saders is the best, but Tony Jay was PERFECT as his replacement. Thurl has an amazing singing voice, and Jason was great as his younger self.

@PurpleWarrior13 It's scary how similar they sound
I hope Corey Burton does a good job

No contest; George, although Tony Jay did echo Sanders pretty well and Thurl is just plain awesome whatever he does.

Tony Jay's the only one who can compare to George Sanders. Thurl Ravenscroft is an evil Tony the Tiger and Jason Marsden just never sounded right, even for a cub version of Khan.

George Sanders was good
Tony Jay was amazing at imitating Sanders
Thurl Ravenscroft was in the original film he provided Shere Khan's singing voice
Jason Marsden is the worst he sounds creepy and he has no British accent

I can't decide between George Sanders and Tony Jay, both sound similar, both are good.

Thurl Ravenscroft seems like a good singer, but I don't think he fits the character.

Jason Marsden I guess is decent for a child version of Shere Khan, but can't even compare to Tony Jay and George Sanders.
