Second Jumanji trailer gives first glimpse of Nick Jonas

Sony Pictures dropped the second trailer for Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle on Wednesday, which gave the first glimpse of former boybander Nick Jonas as adventurer Alex.

‘C’mon, let’s go!’ the 5ft7in action star exclaimed in the three-minute teaser.
