Following the news that Edgar Ramirez has signed up for the new live-action Disney movie Jungle Cruise, we hear that Breaking Bad star Jesse Plemons has also joined the cast. Both will play villains in the soon-to-start-production movie, which will be released in 2019.
Dwayne Johnson, Emily Blunt, and Jack Whitehall lead the cast of the Disney film, which is based on their hugely popular Disneyland ride of the same name.
Jaume Collet-Serra, (The Shallows, The Commuter, Non-Stop) is directing.
Johnson is a boat captain who takes a sister (Blunt) and her brother (Jack Whitehall) on a mission to find a tree believed to posses healing powers. Wild animals and a competing German expedition figure into the proceedings.
Plemons was last seen in the hilarious comedy Game Night.
Shooting kicks off in May. More as we get it.
