Jungledyret Hugo (Danish for "Hugo the Jungle Animal") is a Danish media franchise created by Flemming Quist Møller based on a lullaby he wrote for his son,[1] and was later turned into a full-length animated feature, produced at A. Film. The franchise currently consists of two traditionally animated features, an animated television series, books, music album, and a third film animated in CGI.

The first two films were translated, edited, and released in the United States on a single DVD in 1998 by Miramax Family. The first film was released as Go Hugo Go and the second film was released as Hugo the Movie Star.[2] The third film was released on region 1 DVD on August 12, 2014 under the title "Amazon Jack".[3] A CD-ROM side-scrolling platform game for the PC based on the first film was also made in 1995 and released in Scandinavia.[4]
