New Trailer For Disney's JUNGLE CRUISE Puts the Focus on Dwayne Johnson's Skipper Frank
Dwayne Johnson has shared a new trailer for Disney’s upcoming adventure film Jungle Cruise. The trailer puts the focus on Johnson’s character, Skipper Frank, and offers some new footage and insight into his story arc.
The movie is based on the classic Disneyland attraction, and it looks like it’ll be a fun family flick! I know it looks like another silly Disney film, but I’m sure it will offer up some good entertainment.
The movie is described as an “adventure-filled, rollicking thrill-ride down the Amazon,” and the story follows “wisecracking skipper Frank Wolff (Johnson) and intrepid researcher Dr. Lily Houghton (Blunt). Lily travels from London, England to the Amazon jungle and enlists Frank’s questionable services to guide her downriver on La Quila—his ramshackle-but-charming boat. Lily is determined to uncover an ancient tree with unparalleled healing abilities—possessing the power to change the future of medicine. Thrust on this epic quest together, the unlikely duo encounters innumerable dangers and supernatural forces, all lurking in the deceptive beauty of the lush rainforest. But as the secrets of the lost tree unfold, the stakes reach even higher for Lily and Frank and their fate—and mankind’s—hangs in the balance.”
Jungle Cruise was directed by Jaume Collet-Serra and also stars Emily Blunt, Jesse Plemons, Edgar Ramirez, and Jack Whitehall. The movie is set to be released in theaters and on Disney+ with Premier Access on July 30, 2021.
