Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, Kevin Hart and Karen Gillan are leaving the jungle behind in the first trailer for Jumanji: Open World.

Sony Pictures is set to release director Jake Kasdan‘s film in theaters on Dec. 25. Nick Jonas, Alex Wolff, Morgan Turner, Ser’Darius Blain, Madison Iseman, Rhys Darby and Danny DeVito round out the cast for the final installment in the trilogy.

Jumanji: Open World centers on the game’s heroes breaking free of its console and wreaking havoc on our world. The trailer shows Johnson, Black, Hart and Gillan in the real world as stilted versions of the video game avatars they play.

Wolff’s character explains, “We have a problem. They’re video game characters, but they’re stuck in demo mode.”

This movie follows 2017’s Jumanji: The Next Level, which rebooted the franchise after Robin Williams starred in a 1995 feature version adapting Chris Van Allsburg’s 1981 children’s book. Kasdan, who directed the 2017 film and its 2019 sequel, returns to helm Open World from a script he co-wrote with Jeff Pinkner and Scott Rosenberg. Kasdan, Johnson, Matt Tolmach, Dany Garcia and Hiram Garcia serve as producers.

Welcome to the Jungle focused on a group of teenage friends getting trapped inside a video game as a collection of adult avatars. It hit theaters in December 2017 and surpassed $950 million at the global box office. The 2019 sequel, subtitled The Next Level, topped $801 million globally.

Johnson, Hart and Black took the stage at CinemaCon earlier this year, where they unveiled the new movie’s first footage and revealed the title. Black told the crowd, “I’ve never had more fun working on a movie. This is my favorite so far.”
