The response from the filmmakers – that of course proved to be true – that it was relevant to the plot sounded like the usual bobbins response to an uproar. Things didn’t improve when the first cast shot hit, with Karen Gillan in a skimpy outfit, whilst her three male stars were kitted out in more practical junglewear. That director Jake Kasdan – who was behind the much stronger Zero Effect, Orange County and Walk Hard – was coming to the project off the back of Bad Teacher and Sex Tape was not encouraging. It was a good ensemble – The Rock, Karen Gillan, Jack Black, Kevin Hart – but the well of remakes and reboots has been thoroughly poisoned in recent times, and that’s hard to shake. Even as the cast fell into place for what would become Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle, the response was not enthusiastic.
