Jumanji: The Next Level

Jumanji, the beloved children’s book by Chris Van Allsburg, first hit the big screen in 1995 as a blockbuster film starring Robin Williams as Alan Parrish, a man trapped in a magical jungle game for 26 years. The movie proved to be a hit, leading to a sequel called Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle in 2017. This year, the franchise returned with its third film called Jumanji: The Next Level.

Starring Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan and Jack Black, the film revisits the magical world of Jumanji. The second movie saw its four main characters, Fridge, Bethany, Martha, and Spencer transported into a video game world where they take on the avatars of Dr. Smolder Bravestone, Franklin “Mouse” Finbar, Ruby Roundhouse, and Professor Shelly Oberon to complete the task of saving Jumanji.

In Jumanji: The Next Level, the gang returns to Jumanji but with a twist. This time, Spencer has returned to Jumanji by himself and his friends have to go in and save him. When they enter the game again, they are forced to play new avatars, with different skills and abilities, in order to successfully pass the game’s challenges.

The movie also introduces new characters played by Awkwafina, Danny Glover and Danny DeVito. Awkwafina plays a new character, Ming Fleetfoot, an expert in pick-pocketing and sneaking, while Danny Glover and Danny DeVito play Spencer’s grandfather and his former business partner.
