As previously reported, a sequel to Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle was announced for a December 25, 2019 release at CinemaCon earlier this year. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson revealed a new update on the sequel on his Instagram account, which you can see below. The Rock wrote the following:

Ladies, gents and children of all ages.. The JUMANJI SEQUEL is officially underway. Holy shit what a dynamite pitch from our writer/director Jake Kasdan. We couldn’t stop laughing and most importantly – like our first JUMANJI – the HEART in our story is our anchor. Writing with Jake, are our original JUMANJI writers Jeff Pinkner and Scott Rosenberg.
Back to produce is my twin, Matt Tolmach and myself, @danygarciaco & @hhgarcia41. And sorry for the spoiler but @kevinhart4real dies in the first 15 seconds of the movie, to what I’m assuming will be a HUGE standing ovation from the audience and the cast @karengillanofficial @jackblack @nickjonas #TheSmolderReturns #SevenBucksProds #SONY #JUMANJI
