“Jumanji” Remake with The Rock?!

  • Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson posted a photo of himself on Instagram proudly holding a copy of the “Jumanji” remake script. Johnson took to the social media site to assure fans that the remake script is fantastic, and how the film will be just as good as its predecessor.  “It’s OFFICIAL: Love this script! Big movie news that me and my canine gal Shang are excited to share;) To produce, create and deliver original properties to fans like HBO’s #ballers to this summer’s #CentralIntelligence is one of the best parts of my job.  But to take great properties that are beloved worldwide like #BAYWATCH and #RAMPAGE and have the opportunity reimagine their stories in dope new ways to a whole new generation is truly an honor. It’s official. We’ll produce and deliver to a whole new generation a title that I love and is one of my all time favs:  There’s games you play for fun… then there’s games that change your life. JUMANJI  Working on edging up an already very good script with my @sevenbucksprod team. Up next is meeting with our producer Matt Tolmach and director Jake Kasdan. Shooting starts this fall. Promise to deliver something cool and special.. and not screw the whole damn thing up;). As always I’ll keep you posted. Casting this should be fun!”  There’s no implication that Johnson would take a starring role in the film (honestly we hope he doesn’t), and he does promise not to screw the whole damn thing up. We’ll see if he can keep that promise.
