When is Jumanji: The Next Level released in cinemas?Jumanji: The Next Level is released in UK cinemas 20th December 2019.The moment when we wrapped on the next Jumanji movie OUT THIS CHRISTMAS!!!! The gang will be back but not exactly as you’ve come to know us— Karen Gillan (@karengillan)Is there a trailer for Jumanji: The Next Level?Yes – two! Released in July, the first trailer shows off the new story of the movie as our heroes are sucked back into the videogame to find their friend Spencer.Trapped in different avatars and with some pensioners in tow, the gang must traverse exciting new locations and levels in order to complete the game again – assuming they don’t just hit Game Over.

Crush the castle 41. Apr 12, 2018  While Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle is winding down its epic box office run, the global blockbuster just beat a 16-year-old record.

As well as giving us a closer look at some of the dramatic new terrains and the back and forth between the two pensioner characters, we also get some answers about what has happened to missing characters Spencer and Bethany.Who’s in the cast of the Jumanji sequel? Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Karen Gillan, Jack Black, Kevin Hart and Nick Jonas reprise their roles as the in-game “avatars” controlled by real-life people (alongside Rhys Darby’s non-playable character Nigel), while original movie heroes Alex Wolff, Ser’Darius Blain, Morgan Turner, Madison Iseman and Colin Hanks are also back for the sequel.Newcomers for The Next Level include Danny DeVito as Eddie Gilpin, the grandfather of Wolff’s character Spencer, who along with his best friend Milo Walker (Danny Glover) gets sucked into the game alongside the teenagers. Awkwafina also joins the cast in an as-yet unknown role in the game.What happened in the first Jumanji movie?Well, it depends what you mean by “first”. Based on the trailer it looks like the four kids have drifted apart again, causing Spencer to try and repair the Jumanji game (which they destroyed at the end of the first film) to somehow reconnect the group.Instead, Spencer disappears and his friends are pulled back into the game – but it now appears to be malfunctioning, casting Spencer’s grandfather (DeVito) in Spencer’s former character of Dr Bravestone (Johnson) and fellow pensioner Milo (Danny Glover) as diminutive zoologist Mouse Finbar. Cue plenty of Devito and Glover impressions from Johnson and Hart.Fridge, meanwhile, is placed in the body of Jack Black’s Shelly Oberon, and Bethany and Spencer are nowhere to be found as a new, more challenging Jumanji quest begins.The official synopsis reads.

In Jumanji: The Next Level, the gang is back but the game has changed. As they return to Jumanji to rescue one of their own, they discover that nothing is as they expect. The players will have to brave parts unknown and unexplored, from the arid deserts to the snowy mountains, in order to escape the world’s most dangerous game. Will there be another Jumanji sequel after The Next Level?Very possibly.

Without giving too much away, The Next Level finishes with a twist that leaves the door wide open for sequels. Read more (spoilers ahead!).

There are not many franchises which have been renewed recently which I have actually thought turned out well. Most have been done badly but I have to say that Jumanji stands out as an exception.

This movie does not have a heavy deep story, doesnt try to be anything more than it is, this movie makes you laugh, keeps you entertained and ensures you leave the theater feeling happier than you went in. It wont win oscars but it will win your heart, definitely a movie to go and enjoy at this time of year.
