Jumanji is returning for its third installment in 2026 during the holiday season. Sony Pictures announced that Jumanji 3 will be released on Dec. 6. The main original cast and the director of the previous two films, Jake Kasdan, will be returning.

The cast of the film is stacked like the previous two. Although, a stacked cast doesn’t necessarily carry the entire film. Nevertheless, Kevin Hart, Dwayne Johnson, Karen Gillan, and Jack Black will reprise their roles as Franklin “Mouse” Finbar, Dr. Xander “Smolder” Bravestone, Ruby Roundhouse, and Professor Sheldon “Shelly” Oberon, respectively, in Jumanji 3.
Johnson and Kasdan will return as producers, along with Dany Garcia, Hiram Garcia, and Matt Tolmach, who all produced the second film, Jumanji: The Next Level. The film will screen in both IMAX and large premium formats.
The new-age Jumanji film franchise is based on the original 1995 film of the same name, which was, in turn, based on a children’s book from 1981. The original Jumanji film had a sequel called Zathura in 2005. In 2017, the series returned with Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, earning over $950 million at the box office. The sequel two years later made over $800 million. So, if you’re wondering why there is a Jumanji 3, then that’s your answer.

With so many high-profile actors in the main cast, it was hard to coordinate shooting schedules to begin production, said Gillan.
“I’m sure it’s tricky to wrangle everyone’s schedules, but I haven’t heard anything about it other than the fact that we will be doing it at some point. So we’re all so enthusiastic about it. We all love working on those films, and it’s just a matter of when.” Gillan told The Hollywood Reporter.
With just over two years till Jumanji 3, you definitely have time to catch up on the entire Jumanji film franchise. You can find the original Jumanji and its sequel, Zathura: A Space Adventure, on Netflix. The newer Jumanji’s are available to stream on Hulu.
