The making of ROAR spanned a period of more than 5 years.  It involved the remarkable talents of a crew of more than 100 dedicated men and women as well as the participation of more than 110 untrained lions, tigers, leopards and cheetahs.  Add to that two elephants, twelve flamingos and eight ostriches... and the end product is nothing less than amazing.  Needless to say, a production of this sort places special demands on both cast and crew.  Use the links on this page to learn about this incredible film and about the amazing people who made ROAR possible.  Learn about the extraordinary talents of actress Tippi Hedren, about her Academy Award winning daughter and co-star Melanie Griffith, and about award-winning cinematographer Jan De Bont, whose career in the United States began right here, on the set of ROAR.
