Emily Blunt and Dwayne Johnson team up for adventure in lighthearted 'Jungle Cruise' trailer
Watch Next

Dwayne Johnson is heading back to the jungle — not for another Jumanji sequel (not yet, anyway), but for Disney's Jungle Cruise. Johnson plays an explorer who has spent years searching for a mythical, magic healing tree, but he's finally found a partner in the expedition who wants it as badly as he does (Emily Blunt).

Together, the duo set off to find the tree and harness its powers, but not before they have to survive every deadly creature and environment that the expedition has to throw at them. In the trailer alone, we have river rapids, venomous snakes, and a villainous Jesse Plemons shooting missiles from a submarine.

Jungle Cruise hits theaters July 24.
