Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart and Karen Gillan Have Been Cast In The Jumanji Sequel!

Jack Black and Nick Jonas are also set to star in the sequel.

Karen Gillan is set to Join Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Kevin Hart in the upcoming ‘Jumanji’ Sequel... F*ck yes! The 1995 movie starring Robin Williams and Kirsten Dunst, told the story of a 12-year-old boy who became trapped in a board game in 1969 only to be released 26 years later.

Plot details are being kept tightly under wraps but the former Doctor Who star has been announced as the female lead in Sony’s sequel of the original box office hit. The Rock had a few words to say about his future co-star.

"Between myself, @kevinhart4real Jack Black and @NickJonas we've searched far and wide to find the one person to complete our #JUMANJI family. This isn't just any role, but in many ways the most important role of the movie. We had to find a girl. But not just any girl. A girl who has "Chutzpah". Guts, nerve and talent to stand her ground and hold her own against Nick's cool rockstar ways, Jack's relentless energy and genius, Kevin's masterful timing and skills and the big, brown, bald tattooed guy who just simply stands there and oooooozes smoldering, captivating, sizzling, can't take your eyes off this brilliant manly man.. never mind I got drunk on the ol' DJ kool aid again. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm proud to announce a girl who's playing the most important role in our movie - the talented, beautiful and down for a Scottish fight at any time, Ms @KarenGillanOfficial. And yes, this is the girl who is so bad ass she shaved her freaking head for Guardians of the Galaxy. We start production next month in Hawaii and as many of you already know, this isn't a remake or reboot, but a continuation of the awesome JUMANJI story we love. Jake "The Snake" Kasdan directing, Matt "OG" Tolmach producing. Yup, I give everyone nicknames. The adventure and fun continues... "

Jake Kasdan, who has produced the likes of New Girl, Fresh Off The Boat and Freaks and Geeks, is slated to direct the movie. Jack Black and Nick Jonas have also been added to the killer ensemble cast.

Excuse us while we process this information.

The Rock has also taken to Instagram to let fans know that the film is going to be a continuation, not a reboot.

Jumanji will hit theatres on July 28, 2017!
