The Clark Gable lookalike was Tom Neal, who was also a Golden Gloves boxing champion. Once he assaulted actor Francet Tone when he caught him dating Neal's girlfriend Barbara Peyton. Neal also played comic strip pilot Bruce Gentry in a Columbia serial. He would later be sentenced to a prison term for killing his wife in a domestic quarrel.

Francis Gifford was such a beauty, and athletic, and made some very good films later, it was a terrrible thing was left so bably injured after a auto accident in 1948, that left her with life long injuries. I love watching the cliff hanger again thanks. RIP Francis 1994, yes she was Frank Gifford's sister.

@jlovebirch Yep, Edgar Rice Burroughs owned the copyright to jungle girl

Having seen "Panther Girl of the Kongo" (1955) on TV as a kid in the '60s, it is funny to discover Republic simply remade Jungle Girl from the '40s. Maybe the name change was for legal reasons.
