Jumanji: The Next Level
The firstJumanji : The Next Leveltrailer is here , but what call plays over the footage ? In 2017 , Sony successfully relaunched theJumanjiproperty withWelcome to the Jungle . Featuring an all - star mould of Dwayne Johnson , Kevin Hart , Karen Gillan , and Jack Black , the film receive kudos from critics for being a fun risky venture movie over the holiday season , and it was a terrific corner berth hit to iron heel . Jumanji : Welcome to the Jungleearned $ 404.5 million domestically , holding its own againstStar Wars : The Last Jediand becomingSony ’s highest - grossing moving picture of all - time .
Unsurprisingly , the studio moved quickly on a sequel , opting once againto have a Christmas confrontation withStar Warsthis December . With just about five calendar month remaining untilJumanji’srelease ( as of this writing ) and Sony coming out withSpider - human being : Far From Homeover an extended Fourth of July weekend , the prison term was perfect to launch aNext Levelmarketing campaign .

TheJumanji : The Next Leveltraileris set to " It ’s All in the Game , " which was a 1958 single from Tommy Edwards . It ’s been recorded by several artists , including Nat King Cole , Cliff Richard , Four Tops , and Merle Haggard . The song actually originated as an instrumental track in 1911 , before Carl Sigman tot up lyric in 1951 .
Looking over those lyrics , " It ’s All in the Game " is clearly a quixotic song , with passion serve well as the aforementioned game . In the strain , the singer come out to be comforting a heartbroken woman , ascertain them that their true love will be at their side no matter how speculative things seem to get . Thematically , the words ( probably ) have nothing to do withJumanji : The Next Level . The preview positions it as another comedic adventure , similar to its predecessor ( with the gimmick of Johnson and Hart portraying elderly men ) . Sony ’s marketing department likely choose this song because of the championship ; the fibre inJumanjifind themselves in the game , and require to work together so they can go back home . Additionally , fifties daddy makes for an amusing juxtaposition against the set piece and helps the trailer brook out a fiddling more . " It ’s All in the Game " is arguably a beneficial excerption than a moody screen of a classic vocal .
" It ’s All in the Game " is also a bleak line from " Welcome to the Jungle , " which ( for obvious reasons ) was the soundtrack of choice forWelcome to the Jungle’sadvertising campaign . It ’ll be interesting to see if Sony go with something a slight more fast - pace for future TV spots or laggard , but " It ’s All in the Game " is an inspired choice . It being from a bypast era is reflective of Johnson and Hart ’s characters being from another era themselves .
