Next installment of Sony's 'Jumanji' is up for a summer 2017 release, but no cast member has yet been announced.

However, sources revealed that the studio is lining up two comedy big hitters, namely Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart for the film, reports the Independent.

Johnson and Hart, who will star alongside one another in upcoming comedy 'Central Intelligence,' recently, hosted the MTV Movie Awards together earlier this month.

The film was originally released in 1995 and starred Robin Williams as Alan Parrish, a man released from a board game having been trapped inside for 26 years.

The upcoming installment of the flick will be directed by Jake Kasdan.
