Sure, Jumanji is getting one other sequel, and Sony has locked in a launch date for the threequel.
A 3rd Jumanji reboot movie has been within the works just about since the second got here out, however that was 5 years in the past now, so you may forgive me if I fully forgot about it. Not a lot headway has been made on it within the years since, partially delayed because of the pandemic, and now, as reported by Deadline, Sony has locked in a launch date for it: December 11, 2026. Director Jake Kasdan is tapped to return, and the sequence’ essential forged, i.e. Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black, and Karen Gillan, are all anticipated to return for it, and are at present in talks about it. Producers Matt Tolmach, Dany Garcia, and Hiram Garcia additionally again for the mission.
This movie comes per week earlier than Disney’s at present untitled Star Wars film, so if that makes its launch date it will be fairly the blockbuster vacation season. Not a lot else is understood concerning the threequel at this cut-off date, however with a then seven 12 months hole between it and the final one, there’s the query whether or not audiences will care – presumably all that star energy will assist it out nicely sufficient, although. The final movie was extremely profitable, grossing over $800 million on the field workplace on a funds of $125-132 million, so there’ll clearly be massive expectations at Sony for this one.
Within the time for the reason that second movie, each Johnson and Kasdan have been busy collectively, as they’ve each been engaged on Crimson One collectively, the previous taking part in the pinnacle of the North Pole’s safety. Johnson’s character has to staff up with Marvel star Chris Evans, a hacker and bounty hunter, after Santa Claus (performed by J.Okay. Simmons) is kidnapped. That one’s due out subsequent month, and I am certain with a forged like that and the vacation season arising it will do nicely sufficient.
