Los Angeles: The sequel to “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle” will arrive in theatres next year in winter. Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group chairman Tom Rothman announced the news as the CinemaCon opened for this years edition, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

“Id bet on seeing Dwayne Johnson in theatres again in December 2019. Dont rush to give all those screens to Star Wars,” Rothman quipped. “Come on, fairs fair,” he added.

The first film was a sequel to the 1995 childrens classic, which starred Robin Williams. It featured Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan, Nick Jonas and SerDarius Blain, released last Christmas.

It went on to become one of the most successful films in Sonys history, with a business of over 62130.92₹ million at the box office globally.
