    Credits:
  • Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle deviated from the source book and the 1995 film starring Robin Williams.

    Instead of making Jumanji a board game, the newly imagined movie made it a video game where the teens are transformed into their in-game adult avatars.

    The sequel will carry on the adventures in a similar vein but DeVito's role and the plot are currently under wraps.
