Jungle — U.S. Trailer

added: Tue, Sep 5th '17

In last year's cult comedy "Swiss Army Man," Daniel Radcliffe found himself stranded on a deserted island while portraying a farting corpse. In his new film "Jungle," Radcliffe has once again found himself in a similar situation. Good news! This time, he's not dead. Though the question is, how long can he stay alive?

Check out the new U.S. trailer for Radcliffe's upcoming survival drama, which is based on the harrowing true story of 22-year-old Israeli backpacker Yossi Ghinsberg (portrayed here by Radcliffe) who, in the early 1980s, got lost in the Bolivian jungle with his friends after being duped by a crooked tourist guide.

The film, which co-stars Alex Russell (Chronicle), Joel Jackson (Peter Allen: Not the Boy Next Door) and German actor Thomas Kretschmann (King Kong), is directed by Greg Mclean, the Australian horror director of "Wolf Creek" and the recent James Gunn-scripted thriller "The Belko Experiment."

Based on Ghinsberg's memoir, "Jungle" is scheduled to be released in theaters and on VOD and Digital HD beginning October 20th.

In the early 1980s, 22-year-old Israeli backpacker Yossi Ghinsberg and two friends – Swiss teacher Marcus Stamm and American photographer Kevin Gale – set off from the Bolivian city of La Paz on what was supposed to be the adventure of a lifetime.

But their dream trip soon turned into a wilderness nightmare from which not all of the men returned.
