Outside of these Jumanji Juniors joining the cast, Deadline also revealed that Rhys Darby has also joined the cast in the role of Nigel.
Instead of keeping Jumanji as a board game, upgrading it to an interactive video game makes much more sense in present day.
THR has revealed that Alex Wolff has joined the film and will be playing Spencer, whose in-game avatar will be that of Johnson’s Dr. Smolder Bravestone.
The film is set to be a continuation of the story told by Robin Williams’ 1995 adventure flick, but will bring the game into the present day.
