Disney's Jungle Cruise Movie - July 30, 2021 in Theatres and Disney+

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is now attached to another Disney theme-park-attraction-made-to-movie. Technically the film has no title but is based on the "Jungle Cruise" attraction much like Pirates of the Caribbean.

Pumped to kick off the writing for our Disney's JUNGLE CRUISE. Great meeting w/ our writers Requa & Ficarra who last wrote and directed FOCUS w/ Will Smith and BAD SANTA w/ Billy Bob Thornton. Our goal is to push the envelope in a smart, edgy, epically fun way. Johnny Depp raised the bar with PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN.. now it's our turn at bat to take an iconic Disney attraction and hopefully turn it into something dope and cool. I'll keep y'all posted along the way. Here we go... #BigAdventureAwaits #ItsAPeriodMovie #DamnRightIWillStillBeHandsomeInThe1920s #JungleCruise

I'm pretty sure The Rock will do anything at this point, the Tooth Fairy proved that!

Disney took Pirates of the Caribbean and made it a billion dollar movie franchise so anything can happen?

Pretty average. Okay for a one time watch. I am also kinda getting tired of literally every action/fantasy movie set in 1930s shoehorning a nazi angle to it. Was there no other villian in that era, or is it just lazy writing.

Dwayne Johnson ain't gonna sue Disney for any anticipated loss in potential backend pay.
https://comicbook.com/movies/news/dwayn ... n-lawsuit/
Johnson and his Seven Bucks Productions "have no intention of battling Disney for any anticipated loss of dollars" from the day-and-date release of Jungle Cruise, according to a report from Deadline. In May, after Disney announced Jungle Cruise would be its fifth film to set sail on Premier Access on the same day it opens in theaters, Deadline reported Disney approached the filmmakers with options to move forward with a simultaneous release.

The tirelessy entrepreneurial Mr. Rock is more concerned about his personal brand than a temporary financial shortfall YMMV

Watched it at home with kids. Was a fun movie, 7/10.

I enjoyed the cheesy jokes the Rock was making while giving the tour and my daughters were rolling their eye... LOL
