London is set to welcome the first-ever 'World of Jumanji' next spring.
The exciting news comes after theme park Chessington World of Adventures and Sony Pictures Entertainment announced a £17 million development.
The project is bringing together entertainment and industry experts from around the world as they create a world-first experience that deep dives into the adventurous, action-packed stories seen in the box office hit Jumanji films.
Acting as the world's portal an impressive overgrown Jumanji sign will stand to welcome guests to the adventurous world.
Whilst inside the land the iconic and unmissable Jaguar Shrine structure looms 55ft tall, keeping a watchful eye out over all who enter as it awaits the return of the curse-lifting Jaguar’s Eye jewel.
More details on the wild rides, attractions and drama-filled experiences guests can expect to discover in the ‘World of Jumanji’ are set to be shared over the coming months.
Tim Harrison-Jones, Divisional Director at Chessington World of Adventures Resort, said: "What could be more exciting than bringing the global hit Jumanji film franchise to life within the single largest development Chessington has ever seen."
Jeffrey Godsick, EVP of Global Partnerships and Brand Management and Head of Location Based Entertainment at Sony Pictures Entertainment said "After being entertained by the films for so many years, fans now have the chance to experience Jumanji in a whole new dimension and we are thrilled to be going on this exciting adventure with the creative team at Chessington as Jumanji further expands with its very own themed land.”
