Sony Pictures has revealed a first look at "Jumanji: Open World," the next film in the popular action-comedy franchise, at CinemaCon. The upcoming movie, scheduled for release on December 25, 2026, continues the series' theme of blurred lines between a fantastical game and the real world.
This installment features Kevin Hart, Dwayne Johnson, and Jack Black in new roles, with Johnson's character, Dr. Bravestone, taking on a Spanish persona. The trailer showcased jungle beasts invading a New England town, indicating significant action. The film will also include an Easter egg to celebrate the 1995 Robin Williams hit "Jumanji," incorporating the original dice used in that movie.
Directed again by Jake Kasdan, the film sees the return of Karen Gillan, Nick Jonas, Awkwafina, Alex Wolff, Morgan Turner, and Danny DeVito. Johnson has hinted that this could be the final film in his Jumanji tenure, though the franchise's success suggests Sony may explore other avenues for its continuation. The cast expressed enthusiasm for the project, with Black calling it his favorite moviemaking experience.
