Jumanji has received its welcome to the 2st century with a new trailer, which gives us an insight to what we can expect from the re-boot. We say re-boot, but the only real link the new film has to the original is well, the title.<\/p>\n
Yes, the story does follow a game that is brought to life, but unlike the original film with beloved actor Robin Williams, the characters are this time taken into<\/em> \u2018Jumanji\u2019, finding themselves transformed into the game\u2019s avatars. Oh, did I forget to mention that there is no longer a board game? The characters won\u2019t have to roll the dice to decide their fate, they just need to plug the game into a power source, choose their avatar and ultimately, try to survive.<\/p>\n It is a bit disappointing that Jumanji 2: Welcome To The Jungle has steered so far away from the original. But, with an all-star cast including Jack Black, Kevin Hart, Dwayne Johnson and Karen Gillan, the film does have a lot of comedic promise.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s hope so, it has some pretty big shoes to fill with the success of the first film.<\/p>\n Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle is due to be released in December.<\/p>\n Check out the trailer below:<\/p>\n
