Now here’s a remake none of us saw coming. Actually, calling the upcoming “Anaconda” movie a remake is a big stretch. It’s more of a meta-reboot that follows a group of amateur filmmakers and their attempt at remaking the 1997 film “Anaconda”. This action-comedy from director Tom Gormican is a spoof that doesn’t look to be taking itself seriously at all. And from what I’ve seen, that looks to be the right approach.
With the film only a few weeks away, Columbia Pictures has released several new character posters featuring stars Paul Rudd, Jack Black, Thandiwe Newton, and more. You can check them out below.
“Anaconda” releases exclusively in theaters on December 25th.


OK, this actually looks funny.
It really does!
I am really looking forward to this one. When I first heard of the release date, I got “Jumanji vibes.” I recall when Jumanji opened in the US a few days before Christmas in 2017, it became a massive Holiday hit. I am sure it is no accident they scheduled this jungle comedy – with Jack Black no less – for the same time period.
It’ll be interesting to see. Several things coming out on the 25th. I just watched another Christmas Day movie that I’m looking forward to reviewing.
It’ll be in Aussie cinemas by Boxing Day
I read that somewhere.👍🏼
Hmm, Rudd and Black are a put off for me.
I’m not a big Jack Black guy. But I admit, the trailer tickled me.
