Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is headed back to Georgia to film his new Disney movie, Jungle Cruise.
According to the Official Georgia Tourism and Travel site, Disney’s Jungle Cruise will film in Georgia starting the next few weeks.
The Rock will star and produce the adventure production. The actor closed the deal on the Disney movie last April, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The Disney live-action adaptation of the popular theme park ride will be released in spring 2018.
Jungle Cruise is one of Disneyland’s original rides and takes park-goers on a journey through Africa’s Nile and Congo rivers as well as South America’s Amazon.
The Rock has been attached the movie since 2015, but the production was still in development and went through several drafts with several writers.
This news comes after Dwayne Johnson filmed nearly all of his big-budget movies in Atlanta including Rampage, Jungle Book, Fast 8, and Baywatch.
Stay tuned for casting calls and job opportunities in the next upcoming weeks.
