What happens
Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle is a 2017 American action-adventure film directed by Jake Kasdan and written by Chris McKenna, Erik Sommers, Scott Rosenberg and Jeff Pinkner. The film is the third in the Jumanji film series and a sequel to Jumanji (1995). The film stars Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan, Nick Jonas, Rhys Darby and Bobby Cannavale. The story focuses on a group of teenagers who come across Jumanji, now transformed into a video game roughly twenty years after the original film's events. They find themselves trapped inside the game as a set of adult avatars, seeking to complete a treacherous quest alongside another player who has been trapped in it since recovering and playing it in 1996. The film contains notable references to the first film as a tribute to its lead actor, Robin Williams. Principal photography began in Honolulu in September 2016 and ended in Atlanta in December. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle premiered at the Grand Rex in Paris on December 5, 2017, and was released in the United States on December 20 by Sony Pictures Releasing. The film received mostly positive reviews from critics, and grossed $963 million, becoming the fifth-highest-grossing film of 2017. A sequel, Jumanji: The Next Level, was released in 2019.
