>The long-gestating Jumanji sequel takes place decades after Joe Johnston’s 1995 film, which starred Robin Williams as Alan Parrish and Bonnie Hunt as Sarah Whittle, as well as Kirsten Dunst as Judy Shepherd and Bradley Pierce as Peter Shepherd. Although there are no plans to bring back any of the original cast members (especially considering that Williams has since passed away), there’s still the possibility that the studio could use archive footage for flashback sequences.
>Instead, the Jumanji sequel follows the adventures of four new teenagers who come into contact with the Jumanji video game and, consequently, get sucked into its world. In doing so, they immediately become adults — and they are: Dwayne Johnson as Dr. Smolder Bravestone (former gamer Spencer), Kevin Hart as Moose Finbar (former football jock Fridge), Karen Gillan as Ruby Roundhouse (former wallflower Martha), and Jack Black as Professor Shelly Oberon (former “popular girl” Bethany). According to the synopsis, they must discover how Alan beat the game all those years ago and escape the world themselves.
>Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle is directed by Jake Kasdan (Bad Teacher, New Girl), and based on a screenplay by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers, as well as Scott Rosenberg and Jeff Pinkner. Thus far, audiences have only gotten one first look at the film, which itself caught flak for Gillan’s “skimpy” outfit, though she says there’s a valid reason for her wearing that outfit in the upcoming sequel. Perhaps that’s something that will be addressed in the movie’s first trailer, which Seven Bucks Productions has announced will release this Thursday.
I'm excited for this R RATED piss pants shit show at my local cineplex - forget about the critics!
Juan Peterson
HAHAHA what a teaser. Classic. Simply classic.
LITERALLY pissing myself watching it.
If this flops, critics JUST. DIDN'T. GET. IT.
It's an ACTION-ADVENTURE film akin to the old cereals on TV in the 50's. JUST. GET. THAT.

>Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter at a photo call held on the sidelines of CineEurope in Barcelona, Jack Black — who had just moments earlier straddled an animatronic crocodile for the benefit of the cameras — explained that the late great Robin Williams still had a role to play, with the new film featuring a tribute to him.
>"We're exploring this jungle and trying to conquer the game; it's life or death," he said. "But while we're there, we find clues left behind by [Williams' character Alan Parrish]. He built up a full-blown jungle house, similar to a Swiss Family Robinson situation. It's like he's there helping us without actually being there."
>Black also explained one key difference between Jumanji and Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.
Oh no
"[In the original] you never got to see the inside world," he said. "But this one takes place primarily inside the jungle of Jumanji. That's the coolest part of the film — we're able to transport the audience to that secret and wondrous land, with the danger and the beauty."
Justin Ramirez
They have the technology!
Hunter Cook
>you never got to see the inside world
Yes we did.
Justin Thomas
Yeah it seems they are ripping that off
Hunter Rodriguez
Well I expect giant mutated Rhino's, Elephants, and Van Pelt hunting them all the way through.

Leo Rogers
>Perhaps that’s something that will be addressed in the movie’s first trailer, which Seven Bucks Productions has announced will release this Thursday.
The fucking release just said it's because teenagers become adults, and it's obvious given how each adult form is the opposite of the kid form that they take the form of game avatars.
>they must discover how Alan beat the game all those years ago If this were actually based on the game from the prior film, then they'd be stuck there forever until somebody makes progress outside the game. So either they're taking this approach: or it'll be more lazily done and be like
Jose Foster
>they stuck in a video game that's retarded
