Jungle Cruise

Favorite actors Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt take you on the adventure of a lifetime in Disney’s Jungle Cruise, which offers a fast-paced ride through the Amazonian jungles on the journey of foul-mouthed skipper Frank Wolff and intrepid researcher Dr. Lily Houghton.

Lily travels from London to the Amazon jungle and relies on Frank’s questionable guide services as they navigate the river on La Quila—Frank’s dilapidated but charming boat in its own way. Lily is determined to find an ancient tree with healing powers that could revolutionize the future of medicine. This surprising pair of sleds embarks on an adventure where they encounter countless lurking dangers and supernatural forces in the deceptively beautiful hideouts of the rainforest.

When the secrets of the tree they’ve been searching for are finally revealed, the stakes rise as the fate of Lily and Frank—and all of humanity—hangs in the balance. Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra. As actors, e.g. Dwayne Johnson, Emily Blunt and Edgar Ramírez. (Source: Filmikamari)
