Hot on the heels of Awkwafina joining Sony Pictures’ upcoming new Jumanji movie, now comes word that Danny DeVito will be a part of the Welcome to the Jungle follow-up.

Variety first broke the news, with Dwayne Johnson than taking to his Instagram page to officially confirm the addition of the It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Batman Returns and Twins actor.

No plot specifics are known for this to-be-titled new Jumanji effort just yet, but DeVito and Awkwafina will join the returning Johnson, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan and Jack Black. Similarly, director Jake Kasdan will be back to oversee proceedings.

With Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle having brought home just shy of $1 billion for Sony, it’s no surprise that they’re once again ready to head back into the jungle this coming December.
