Sony's Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle sequel has got the whole gang back together. Per THR, the third Jumanji film has locked down Welcome to the Jungle's stars Ser'Darius Blain, Alex Wolff, Madison Iseman, and Morgan Turner to return as the teen gamers who transform into The Rock & Co. when transported into the video game world of Jumanji.
That about rounds out the major players from the original cast for the sequel. Dwayne Johnson, Karen Gillan, Jack Black and Kevin Hart are already set to return, along with Welcome to the Jungle director Jake Kasdan (Bad Teacher). As previously reported, the sequel also has some fun new additions on the call sheet including Awkwafina, Danny DeVito, and Danny Glover.
Plot details for the sequel are still under wraps. The 2017 hit offered an update on the classic Jumanji yarn, inverting the action from a magical board game that invades the real world to a magical video game that sucks players into its reality. The film focused on four teens (played by Blain, Wolff, Iseman, and Turner) who find themselves transported into the adventure-packed world of Jumanji, where they take on the form of the avatars played by Hart, Johnson, Black, and Gillan, respectively.
The young actors have been keeping busy between trips to the jungle. Wolff starred alongside Toni Collette in Ari Aster's stunning horror hit Hereditary last year and is currently in post-production on The Cat and the Moon, the coming-of-age drama that he wrote, directed and starred in.
Blain is currently starring in The CW's Charmed reboot. Next up, he'll be seen starring alongside Samuel L. Jackson, Sebastian Stan, and Ed Harris in The Last Full Measure, as well as Against All Enemies with Kristen Stewart and Anthony Mackie.
Iseman starred in Sony’s Goosebumps sequel Goosebumps: Haunted Halloween last year and recently wrapped on New Line's untitled Annabelle sequel, which is in post-production ahead of a prime July 3rd release.
Turner was previously seen in Toddy Haynes' Wonderstruck and Mildred Pierce mini-series.
