If there is one thing that Hollywood can do, it is boosting licenses. Including those who were believed to be dead, buried, and whose location of the tomb was forgotten. This is how we are regularly drowned by the suites, the reboots, the remakes, or the very fashionable Legacyquels – a reboot where the ancients are returned. But that we bring back to life Anacondathat, we didn’t believe it.
In 1997Jennifer Lopez and Ice Cube chased the giant serpent in the jungle, in the company of Owen Wilson and a freewheel Jon Voight. A film that had nothing to hit the way on paper, but which knew how to find its audience, especially thanks to the video market. We loved Anaconda Precisely for this small assumed series B side where the size counts, and for all its faults. And if we were suffering from ophiophobia, it was the Grail. He won Little cult movie braids And gave birth to a lot of suites that no one remembers.
It is therefore the perfect time to bring out the closet serpent, under the direction of Tom Gormican. The director ofA solid gold talentwith Nicolas Cage and Pedro Pascal, embarks on a fairly similar plan, with his taste for meta. This Anaconda new version will therefore not be not a suite, a reboot or a remakebut a story of two mowed types, fans of the 97 film, trying to make their own version … until they come across a real giant snake.

Anaconda wants us to swallow snakes
The trailer for the feature film traces the main lines of history with Jack Black always in the right shots (Minecraft et Jumanji have been box office boxes) and Paul Rudd. The two will have the help of the too rare Thaiwe et Steve Zahn. The tone is quite light and smells of family comedy until the snake used for their film has an accident, forcing them to go in search of his replacement at the heart of the jungle. Problem, they will especially find a monstrous anaconda. Another problem, the film. Because if we had loved A solid gold talentwe are already beginning to fear that this falsely clever process is above all an ease of easy … especially since he did not really have a hit at the box office, then reproduce the idea …
Where you feel that The film intends to flirt as much on the side of the comedy as of the horrorexcept that the big serpent in CGI seems, on these first images, particularly ridiculous and that even the sequences supposed to raise the pressure are full of steep jokes. We therefore do not really manage to identify the tone and the audience sought by the film, except that the highlight seems to be Jack Black with a dead tightrope taped in the back. We don’t know what to do with this information …
Anaconda new version is released December 31, 2025 in French rooms and it should directly compete Avatar 3released two weeks earlier. We are kidding.
