Jack Black and Paul Rudd looking surprised on the Anaconda remake set
The Anaconda remake gets a new update from Paul Rudd and Jack Black, who unite for a video to reveal the film's release date. Released in 1997, Anaconda follows a National Geographic film crew as they are forced to work with an obsessed hunter to capture the world's largest snake. A sequel was released in 2004, followed by new installments in 2008 and 2009.
✕ Remove Ads Sony now shares a new video featuring Rudd and Black on the Anaconda remake's tropical-looking set, with the pair revealing that the film will hit theaters Christmas 2025. Though there's some confusion over whether the movie will be called"Anaconda" or"The Anaconda," Black does promise that"there's gonna be a big f--king snake.
What The New Anaconda Remake Video Means For The Movie ✕ Remove Ads The set featured in the video, which could be a boat or a bar, certainly looks tropical. This would track with the setting of the first movie, which takes place mostly on a boat in the Amazon River. It's notable, too, that Rudd is wearing scrubs in the video, potentially hinting that he'll be playing the role of Dr. Steven Cale, a character played in the original by Eric Stoltz.
Jennifer Lopez, Jon Voight and Ice Cube anchor the original Anaconda as the three leads, and it seems like Black, Rudd, and Melchior will be the trio taking center stage in the remake. With Rudd seemingly playing a medical professional, that leaves Black as a potential candidate to take over Voight's role as the unhinged captian who takes a National Geographic film crew hostage.
