🐍ANACONDA (2025) – Official Trailer | Paul Rudd & Jack Black Face Big Stakes and Bigger Snakes

The jungle has awakened once again. Sony Pictures has unleashed the official trailer for ANACONDA, the upcoming action-comedy horror that slithers into theaters December 25, 2025. A reimagining of the 1997 cult classic and the sixth installment in the Anaconda film series, this new chapter brings together a powerhouse cast, outrageous humor, and heart-pounding survival thrills.

🎥 The Premise – When Midlife Crises Meet Monster Snakes

In Anaconda, comedy and terror collide. Doug (Jack Black), a wedding videographer, and his best friend Griff (Paul Rudd), a washed-up background actor, decide to remake their favorite movie from childhood in the depths of the Amazon rainforest.

What begins as a comically chaotic film shoot quickly spirals into deadly reality when the crew encounters a real giant anaconda. Suddenly, their dream project becomes a fight for survival.

As the trailer teases:

“The movie they’re dying to make… might just kill them.”

The trailer doesn’t hold back: snapping jaws, jungle chases, and a massive serpent lurking in the shadows. But in true Jack Black and Paul Rudd fashion, the terror comes with a side of laughter.
