Now it’s Dwayne Johnson taking over the skipper role, starring in Jungle Cruise as Frank Wolff – a steamboat captain operating a struggling company providing tourists with thrills in the Amazon.
Just as he is about to lose everything to his biggest competitor (Paul Giamatti), a major opportunity falls into his lap thanks to the arrival of Dr. Lily Houghton (Emily Blunt) and her brother McGregor (Jack Whitehall).
She is on an adventure to try and find the Tears Of The Moon, a legendary plant deep in the rainforest said to cure illness and break any curse, and while Frank recognizes the job as a suicide mission, his desperation and the promise of a big payday see him agree to take the Houghtons aboard.
