(Photo by Kevin Winter/Getty Images) Kevin Winter-Getty Images by [Melissa Locker](https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/) ## Melissa Locker Sep 20, 2016 2:32 PM UTC A few weeks ago, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson [shared some concept art ](http://time.com/4476787/the-rock-jumanji-movie-photo/?iid=sr-link1)for “the smoldering” Dr. Bravestone, the character he plays in the _Jumanji_ reboot. Now, Kevin Hart has revealed the final product not just for Johnson’s character, but for Hart’s and co-stars Karen Gillan’s and Jack Black’s, too. Nick Jonas has also been confirmed for the cast, but is not pictured, so fans will simply have to use their imagination instead. “Day 1 of shooting _Jumanji_ is officially in the can. We had a amazing first day. The chemistry & energy of our cast & crew was beyond amazing!!!! This movie is going to be dope as hell….Can’t wait to get back to work tomorrow @therock @karengillanofficial & jack black!!! #Jumanji,” Hart captioned the picture on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/BKkDFYGh28x/?taken-by=kevinhart4real&hl=en). The photo also seems to make it clear that, [as Johnson promised](http://time.com/4325450/the-rock-robin-williams-jumanji-reboot/?iid=sr-link2), the new take on _Jumanji_ will not simply be a remake of the classic Robin Williams movie. Instead, the film be a “re-imagining” of the story, based on Chris Van Allsburg’s original book, and would honor Williams’s name and the character he played in the film, Alan Parrish. _Jumanji_ is expected to be in theaters in summer 2017. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4501070/kevin-hart-jumanji-movie/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4501070/kevin-hart-jumanji-movie/"},"headline":"Kevin Hart Shared the First Photo From the New Jumanji Movie","datePublished":"2016-09-20T14:32:53.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:36:44.834Z","description":"Check out The Rock, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan, and Jack Black in character","url":"https://time.com/4501070/kevin-hart-jumanji-movie/","keywords":["Newsfeed","movies","Kevin Hart","the rock","dwayne johnson"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7a90d9e34ceed20f/6988a6c8656a3f673cbcd2bb/gettyimages-461383012.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7a90d9e34ceed20f/6988a6c8656a3f673cbcd2bb/gettyimages-461383012.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"72nd Annual Golden Globe Awards - Cocktail Party","caption":"72nd Annual Golden Globe Awards - Cocktail Party","creditText":"Kevin Winter-Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4501070/kevin-hart-jumanji-movie/","name":"Kevin Hart Shared the First Photo From the New Jumanji Movie"}}]}] ```
