The plot takes place during the early 20th century when a riverboat captain named Frank gets a scientist and her brother on a mission into a jungle to find the Tree of Life, which is said to have healing powers. The trio had to battle dangerous wild animals and a rival German group. 

Jungle Cruise cast includes Edgar Ramirez, Jack Whitehall, Jesse Plemons, Paul Giamatti, Andy Nyman, and others. The film was originally scheduled to release on October 11, 2019, but was shifted to July 24, 2020. It was delayed indefinitely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, it is set to arrive on July 30, 2021, in theatres and on Disney+ Premier Access for around $30 in the US and several other places.
