Jumanji: Open World Trailer 2 Reveals New Players and Deadly Rules
Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black and Karen Gillan return in the second Jumanji: Open World trailer. New players take control of familiar avatars as the game's dangers invade the real world.
The game is changing, and this time nowhere is safe. Sony Pictures has released a second official trailer for Jumanji: Open World, revealing new characters, unexpected body swaps and a dangerous final challenge for the returning adventurers.
The latest footage expands on the film's central twist: Jumanji is no longer confined to its video game console. Instead, its creatures and supernatural dangers are invading the real world, bringing prehistoric chaos to the streets of Boston.
Meanwhile, the game has recruited an unusual collection of new players. Spencer finds himself controlling Ruby Roundhouse (Karen Gillan), while his mother takes over Dr Smolder Bravestone (Dwayne Johnson). His younger cousin becomes Mouse Finbar (Kevin Hart), and a charismatic family acquaintance inhabits Professor Shelly Oberon (Jack Black).
The trailer also introduces a particularly alarming rule change. With no extra lives available, completing the game becomes more important than ever, especially as a mysterious new villain threatens their chances of survival.
Jake Kasdan, who directed Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and Jumanji: The Next Level, returns for the final instalment of the modern trilogy. He co-wrote the screenplay with Jeff Pinkner and Scott Rosenberg.
The returning ensemble includes Alex Wolff, Madison Iseman, Morgan Turner, Ser'Darius Blain, Nick Jonas and Danny DeVito.
Jumanji: Open World arrives in UK cinemas on 23 December 2026, followed by its US release on Christmas Day.
With familiar avatars facing unfamiliar players, the final adventure promises to turn the franchise's established rules upside down.
