Jumanji Gal

And a star keeps on rising.

That Jumanji reboot continuation that is to be headlined by The Rock and Kevin Hart and that’s been teased som’in’ fierce all summer long is totally happening – so I guess we best resign ourselves. Bring on the casting news!

Guardians of the Galaxy’s Karen Gillan has been tapped to play Martha, the essential female lead opposite the artist a.k.a. Dwayne Johnson, Hart, Jack Black, and Nick Jonas, in the Jake (Bad Teacher) Kasdan-directed project.

Cool beans, no?

The new Jumanji is set to arrive in theaters end of next July.
