It was recently reported that the film  was leaked online  by notorious piracy website Tamilrockers. The first film of the franchise,  Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle , showed how four high school teenagers are transported into a Jumanji video game as adult avatars. However, the second instalment depicts a new version of Jumanji — while they are used to the jungle format of the original game, the avatars have been placed in a desert. Jack Black, Nick Jonas, Karen Gillan, Awkwafina, and Danny DeVito are also part of the film’s cast.
