Jumanji: The Next Level director Jake Kasdan says they'll "re-engage" after health crisis
Director Jake Kasdan has dished the dirt on his third Jumanji movie, which has been delayed by the global health pandemic.
Kasdan resurrected the beloved title with 2017's Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and last year's sequel The Next Level, but a further continuation was teased at the end of the latter.
As for where the third (or technically fourth) instalment sits, it sounds like it's currently on the backburner.

Speaking to Collider, Kasdan explained: "We were just getting into the conversation before this global calamity and we will re-engage it as soon as everybody's settled.
"We all love working together and we've loved making these."
His two Jumanji blockbusters star Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black and Karen Gillan, who will no doubt all return for a third adventure.

The filmmaker went on: "To me, the thing that's always been most critical when talking about a sequel, first in the first movie and now in the possibility of another sequel is, it would have to be exciting on its own two feet in a way that's comparable to what the first two were for me.
"I would have to love the idea just as much. So I think there will be a third one and it's just the earliest days of trying to figure out what that would be."
Jumanji: The Next Level is available to buy from Prime Video UK, iTunes, Sky Store, Google Play and other UK streaming platforms.
