Which Jumanji: Open World Character Are You?

Learn More About Jumanji: Open World

Jumanji: Open World marks the fourth installment in the modern Jumanji franchise and is billed as the conclusion of the story that began with Welcome to the Jungle back in 2017. This time, the premise flips entirely: instead of teenagers getting sucked into the game, Jumanji itself breaks out of its console and spills into the real world, unleashing jungle chaos onto ordinary streets while the game's iconic avatars — Dr. Bravestone, Ruby Roundhouse, Franklin "Mouse" Finbar, and Professor Shelly Oberon — find themselves stuck in "demo mode" outside the game they were built for.

Dwayne Johnson returns as Dr. Smolder Bravestone, the hyper-competent, fear-immune adventurer avatar who has become the franchise's de facto leader across three prior films. Bravestone's entire character is built around overcorrecting for his real-world counterpart Spencer's insecurities — he's fearless, capable, and a little oblivious to his own invincibility, which has always been the source of the series' best jokes.

Karen Gillan's Ruby Roundhouse continues to be the group's most formidable fighter, channeling martial arts expertise that her real-world counterpart Martha never had. Kevin Hart's Franklin "Mouse" Finbar and Jack Black's Professor Shelly Oberon round out the core team, bringing zoology expertise and comic timing in roughly equal measure — Oberon in particular has been a fan favorite since Jack Black first played a version of a teenage girl trapped in a middle-aged man's avatar body.

What makes Open World a fitting finale is the way it inverts the entire premise one last time. Instead of navigating an unfamiliar jungle with game logic, the avatars now have to make sense of an ordinary American town while still following the rules of the game they came from — lives, level-ups, and all. Returning stars Alex Wolff, Morgan Turner, Ser'Darius Blain, and Madison Iseman reprise their roles as the original teenagers whose lives were changed by the game, giving longtime fans a proper send-off for characters they've followed since 2017.

Directed once again by Jake Kasdan, the film leans into the franchise's signature blend of body-swap comedy and old-school adventure spectacle, while pushing the stakes higher than ever by letting the game's chaos loose on the real world instead of containing it to a jungle setting.

Whether you've got Bravestone's fearless energy, Ruby's fighting instincts, Finbar's sharp eyes, or Oberon's brainpower, this quiz will sort you into your Jumanji avatar. For another quiz about a chaotic animated adventure, check out our Tom and Jerry: Forbidden Compass quiz.

Beyond the core four avatars, Jumanji: Open World leans into new wrinkles like Bebe Neuwirth's Nora Shepherd and Jack Jewkes's Tyson, characters whose exact role in the chaos has been kept deliberately mysterious ahead of release. Combined with the returning teens now fully grown and forced to confront the game one final time, the film positions itself as both a satisfying send-off and a genuine expansion of what the Jumanji universe can do once its rules stop being confined to a jungle board.

With Jake Kasdan back behind the camera for a fourth time, Open World also closes the loop on a franchise that started as a modest reboot of a 1995 Robin Williams movie and somehow grew into one of the more consistently successful family action-comedy series of the last decade.
