Jesse Plemons and Paul Giamatti also star alongside Johnson.

Last year, The A-Scene reported when producers were casting for the project.

The trailer includes several jokes straight from the classic Disney ride that fans are sure to recognize, including a moment at the “Eighth Wonder of the World”… the backside of water.

As the Georgia’s entertainment industry continues to thrive, many A-Listers will linkly be calling the Peach State home.

Kevin Hart, Jack Black, and Karen are all returning for the family action sequel for “Jumanji,” directed by Jake Kasdan.
