Stars of Jumanji sequel pay tribute to Robin Williams

-

Jack Black and Nick Jonas — two of the stars of the upcoming “Jumanji” sequel — have paid tribute to the actor who led the original film — the late Robin Williams. Describing Williams as a “sweet, sweet man,” Black said the late actor would “love” the movie. “He had a great sense of adventure . ... It would have been amazing to work with him,” he said Sunday at a press event for the film in Barcelona, Spain. Williams, who died in 2014, starred in the original 1995 movie as Alan Parrish, who was trapped in a board game for 26 years. The new film, “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle,” shows where Parrish was all that time. “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle” will be released in December.
