screenshots / Tarzan and the Slave Girl / 1950 RKO Radio Pictures
Lex Barker returns for his second of five screen appearances as Tarzan.
Actress Vanessa Brown is cast for the first and only time in the role of Jane.
The original working title of the film was Tarzan and the Golden Lion (the same as the 1927 silent picture).
Hurd Hatfield (perhaps best remembered for his portrayal of Dorian Gray in the 1945 film The Picture of Dorian Gray) appears as the Prince of the Lionians.
Uncredited as a Nagasi Brave, actor Ray Beltram also had small roles in both Tarzan's Magic Fountain (1949) and Tarzan and the She Devil (1953).
Much of the filming was done on the RKO Forty Acres backlot and Tarzan creator Edgar Rice Burroughs visited the set during production.
Tarzan author Edgar Rice Burroughs would pass on March 19, 1950 at the age of 74, just days after the film's March 15th release.
Vanessa Brown passed in 1999 a the age of 71.
Ray Beltram passed in 1967 at the age of 79.
