Jack Black and Paul Rudd will star in a new, reimagined Anaconda film.
The duo announced the news in a hilarious video on Friday, which features the two actors on a fun set enthusiastically talking about the new project.
“Hey, what’s up people, we’re making a movie,” Black says in the video.
“Guess what it is?” Rudd continues, before Black says, “Paul Rudd and Jack Black star in the Anaconda!'”
Black then says the film will have a big snake and that “it’s going to rip!”
“You want to get scared? You want to laugh? You want to celebrate with your friends? Or maybe you’re alone and sad and have nobody but just want to forget about that,” Rudd adds before sharing the film’s 2025 release date.
“Come see our movie, Anaconda!'” Black adds.
The duo end their video with Black asking Rudd if he saw the snake for the film yet before they head off screen to see it.
Tom Gormican and Kevin Etten wrote the script for the upcoming movie, and Gormican will be directing, according to a description of the film. Brad Fuller and Andrew Form also join the film as producers.
Details about the film’s plot are still under wraps.
The first Anaconda movie, an adventure horror film, was released in 1997 and was directed by Luis Llosa. It starred Jon Voight, Jennifer Lopez, Eric Stoltz, Ice Cube and Owen Wilson. The film followed a National Geographic film crew “taken hostage by a hunter who forces them along on his quest to capture the world’s largest and deadliest snake,” according to a description of the film.
Anaconda, starring Black and Rudd, will slither into theaters Dec. 25, 2025.
