If it ain’t broke. Following a pair of Jumanji movies that have grossed $1.6B combined, Dwayne Johnson and director Jake Kasdan are teaming up again, this time on the Amazon holiday action-comedy formerly titled Red One.
Deadline has news on Kasdan agreeing to direct Johnson in the film, which they call “a globe-trotting, four-quadrant action-adventure comedy, imagining a whole new universe within the holiday genre.”
So a funny action movie with a Christmas theme. Got it.
The script is by Chris Morgan, who wrote seven of the Fast and the Furious flicks including five with Johnson on board.
Next up for Johnson is Netflix’s potential blockbuster Red Notice alongside Ryan Reynolds and Gal Gadot. Kasdan’s previous hit films include Sex Tape, Orange County, and Bad Teacher.
