Ever since production has started on theJumanji remake, starDwayne Johnsonhas been sharing numerous photos from the set. Today the actor shared even more photos featuring a big fight scene as filming continues. We don’t have a whole lot of context for this scene, but the actor had this to sy on Instagram earlier today.
“This bad man is an asshole and I must throw him thru this cement pillar. My hand strength is like vice grips… he has no choice. For the record, this man is roughly 6'8 and well over 350lbs - he’s massive and mean - I must run away now to preserve my health. #OnSet #MySaturdayNights #KnuckleUp” #StuntBrotherLuv #Jumanji" Doin' dirt with my stunt brothers tonight. Rehearsals before the bodies hit the floor… I’m searching for a good spot to break his leg with one shot. This scene also looks like what happens when too many drugs are taken at a party. Just say no. #OnSet #HowISpendMySaturdayNights #FightNight #Jumanji"
