Despite the first film currently having only $187 million at the box office on a $200 million budget, Disney's Jungle Cruise film is set to get a sequel. Much like the recent announcement of a sequel to Cruella, it's believed this is due to both films doing well on Disney+ to justify sequels being greenlit. Not to mention the fact the movie even has managed to make that amount at the theater in the midst of a pandemic that has scared off audiences from going to the movies.
Lead stars Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt are set to reprise their roles along with director Jaume Collet-Serra returning to helm and Michael Green as screenwriter (Green co-wrote the first film alongside Glenn Ficarra and John Requa). John Davis, John Fox, Beau Flynn, Dany Garcia, Hiram Garcia, and Johnson will return to produce with Scott Sheldon returning as executive producer. No official release date has been given as of yet. Stay tuned!
How unexpected... :-)
Lasted only 40 min before giving up on it. Everything in the movie looked so fake, starting from the story and going to the characters, acting and all the green screens.
