Lethal Weapon co-star Danny Glover has been added to the cast of the Jake Kasdan-directed Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle sequel joining original stars Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, Kevin Hart, and Karen Gillan.

Awkwafina and Danny DeVito were recently announced as part of the cast for Sony’s next film in the franchise, which is slated to arrive in theaters December 13.

Kasdan co-wrote the screenplay with Scott Rosenberg and Jeff Pinkner. Matt Tolmach, Johnson, Dany Garcia, and Hiram Garcia of Seven Bucks Productions, and Kasdan are returning as producers on the project.

That film was a massive success, earning a worldwide total of $962M is second for Sony, trailing only Skyfall ($1.1B).
