Jumanji: The Next Level
Dwayne Johnson smoulder in the new character posters forJumanji : The Next Level . AfterJumanji : receive to the Jungle ’s nearly billion - dollar run two geezerhood ago , expectations are luxuriously manoeuver into its subsequence ’s release next month . So far , though , The Next Levelappears to be up to the challenge , between bring its predecessor ’s main casting / work party back and adding sweet ingredients like brand - new options and Awkwafina as a costar . Of of course , the bragging and most bonkers twist involves Johnson ’s Jumanji embodiment , Dr. Smolder Bravestone , who’splayed by none other than Danny DeVitointo the film .
As excuse by the trailers , DeVito ’s grapheme , Eddie Gilpin , incidentally finds his way into the world of Jumanji after his grandson Spencer ( Alex Wolff ) repairs the secret plan ’s pickup and heads back in himself . Also along the ride is Eddie ’s friend Milo Walker ( Danny Glover ) , who terminate up playing as Kevin Hart ’s avatar , Franklin Finbar . It ’s something to keep in head while peruse over the movie ’s newly - bring out character placard , which show Dr. Bravestone using his special " smoulder " skill .

Johnson , Hart , and Awkwafina are joined in these one - sheets by Karen Gillan ( back as Ruby Roundhouse ) , Jack Black ( Professor Sheldon Oberon ) , Nick Jonas ( Jefferson McDonough ) , and … a horse . For those who escape it last week , The Next Level ’s final trailerrevealed that Bethany ( Madison Iseman ) ends up recreate the horse inThe Next Levelafter she and other teenagers fromWelcome to the Junglehead back into the game in orderliness to rescue Spencer ( who ’s re - entered Jumanji for as - yet unidentified reasons ) . you may check those post horse out below .
Like the rest of the subsequence ’s merchandising , these poster foreground Awkwafina’sThe Next Levelcharacter without explaining who ( or what ) she is . TheOcean ’s EightandCrazy Rich Asiansstar clearly play a key theatrical role in the motion picture , as attest byher bulge in the trailersand promotional images . It ’s potential she ’s even connected to the reason why Spencer rebuilds the Jumanji game ( after it was blast at the conclusion ofWelcome to the Jungle ) and bring back to that world in the first place . The laggard have already given away most of the celluloid ’s zanier twist , so it ’s decent to see Sony is holding back on a few secret ( including this one ) for audiences to discover when they really seeThe Next Level .
With its discharge escort coming up in six week , it rest to be seen howThe Next Levelperforms at the box office . The Rock is still a popular hooking , so that alone ( in combination with its four - quarter-circle appeal ) will ensure the movie work well enough over the forthcoming winter holidays . Interestingly , there are a heap of latitude between this year ’s December slate and 2017 ’s , whenStar war : The Last Jediruled the box office , but withWelcome to the JungleandThe Greatest Showmanfollowing not too far behind . This twelvemonth , The Rise of Skywalkerlooks to follow inThe Last Jedi ’s footsteps , withThe Next LevelandCatsfighting it out for 2d and third spot . Will Johnson win the battle over musicals once again in 2019 , and maybe even challenge a galaxy far , far away ?
