From “Pirates of the Caribbean” to “The Haunted Mansion,” Disney has never had a hard time turning its beloved theme park attractions into blockbuster movies. Now, ahead of its July 30 premiere, eyes are on “Jungle Cruise,” the star-studded movie inspired by Disney’s Amazon river boat ride.
Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt star in the action-comedy, which just like “Cruella” and “Black Widow” before it, will hit Disney Plus on the same day as theaters. Frequent Disney theme park visitors — many of whom have likely waded through the adventure-ridden river cruise at one of its four theme park locations — are sure to enjoy the inspired film, which sees Dr. Lily Houghton (Blunt) and Frank Wolff (Johnson) take a ramshackle boat down the Amazon in search of an ancient healing tree.
To celebrate “Jungle Cruise,” “Haunted Mansion” and more iconic Disney attractions, check out the best Disney merch and gifts that any Disney lover in your life (including yourself) are sure to love.
