Jesse Plemons Joins Dwayne Johnson And Emily Blunt In JUNGLE CRUISE!

Just yesterday we reported that Edgar Ramirez has joined the cast of Disney’s Jungle Cruise film. Well now we have another villain joining the film. Game Night star Jesse Plemons has also officially signed on.

The plot will be centered around the search for the mystical Tree of Life which is said to have curative powers. (No word yet if this will be connected to the Tree of Life that can be found in Disney’s Animal Kingdom in Orlando, Florida.)

Dwayne Johnson is playing Frank, A witty riverboat captain cursed with immortality who takes Lily Houghton down the river. Blunt will play Lily Houghton,
Spunky scientist in search of the Tree of Life. Her quest is inspired in part by the death of her brother which was caused by an infectious disease. And recently announced Jack Whitehall will play Blunt’s brother.

Jaume Collet-Serra (The Shallows, The Commuter) is set to direct the film, with Flavio Labiano (Non-Stop) as cinematographer, The Jungle Book VFX supervisor will also oversee VFX on Jungle Cruise.

There is no official release date for Jungle Cruise as of yet.
