Against all odds, the Jumanji franchise has been revived to become one of the biggest forces at the box office, with last year’s Jumanji: The Next Level landing on Digital HD on March 3rd and on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD March 17th. Fans were first introduced to the world of a board game coming to life in the original 1981 picture book, which was adapted into a 1995 film starring Robin Williams. In 2017, the concept was reimagined for a new generation, with the star power of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan, and Jack Black making Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle one of the biggest hits of the year.

Per press release, “Jumanji: The Next Level catches up with Spencer (Alex Wolff), Fridge (Ser’Darius Blain), Martha (Morgan Turner), and Bethany (Madison Iseman) three years after their first adventure in Jumanji’s mystical video game world. When Spencer goes missing inside the game ahead of the group’s planned reunion from college, his friends, along with his grandfather (Danny DeVito) and his grandfather’s friend (Danny Glover), once again inhabit the avatars of Dr. Bravestone (Johnson), “Mouse” Finbar (Hart), Professor Sheldon Oberon (Black), and Ruby Roundhouse (Gillan) to rescue him. As they return to Jumanji, they discover that nothing is as they expect. With more action and surprises, the players will have to brave parts unknown and unexplored, from the arid deserts to the snowy mountains, in order to escape.”

The home video releases will also come packed with special features.
