Jumanji, one of the most unique--and dangerous--board games ever, falls into the hands of the curious teen, Alan Parrish, in 1969. Mysterious and magical, the game strands the unsuspecting boy in the lush, savage forests of a mythical realm.
Dropped into the middle of the jungle, they must survive dangerous predators, scheming archeologists, bewitched jewels, and each other in order to return to real life. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle is directed by Jake Kasdan (Red One), and has a 2019 sequel titled Jumanji: The Next Level.
