Disney’s much delayed Jungle Cruise movie will debut on Disney+ with ‘Premier Access’ on July 30th – the same day it will land in cinemas.
The move follows the announcement earlier this year that Marvel’s Black Widow and Cruella will be released in the same way. Those who wish to watch the movies at home need to have a Disney+ subscription, and pay an extra £20/€22/$30 to access the content.
Inspired by the famous Disneyland theme park ride, Jungle Cruise is an adventure-filled quest down the Amazon as an unlikely duo search for a magical, ancient tree. Jaume Collet-Serra directs the film, which stars Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, Emily Blunt, Edgar Ramírez, Jack Whitehall, Jesse Plemons and Paul Giamatti.
The movie was initally slated for a July 2020 release, but was postponed as a result of the pandemic.
