Emily Blunt to Join The Rock in Disney’s ‘Jungle Cruise’

Emily Blunt is setting sail on the Jungle Cruise.

Blunt has been announced to star alongside Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in Disney’s Jungle Cruise. The live-action film is based on the classic Disney theme park attraction, where guests set sail “on a tour of the most exotic and dangerous rivers in Asia, Africa, and South America.”

Johnson, who is also set to produce the film, welcomed his new co-star on Instagram. He states in a video, “I’m so excited to welcome the amazing, the incredibly talented and the beautiful Emily Blunt to Jungle Cruise.” He thanks fans for their excitement of the film and the pairing of him and Blunt. Johnson goes on to joke about a modification to the contract where Blunt must laugh at his jokes…and drink tequila.

Welcome the talented, beautiful and bad ass Emily Blunt to JUNGLE CRUISE. @barackobama just confirmed to me the most critical deal points in her contract, so we’re gonna get along juuuuust great. Break out the tequila. All aboard. The adventure cruise of a lifetime. #BluntJohnson #Disney #JungleCruise 🚢🤙🏾
