Emily Blunt’s ‘Jungle Cruise’ Character is a New Take on the Action-Adventure Movie Damsel [Set Visit]

Image
Disney’s  Jungle Cruise   has its roots in history, but it’s focused on being a little more female-forward. The movie focuses on two leads, curmudgeonly steamboat captain Frank Wolff ( Dwayne Johnson ) and scientist Dr. Lily Houghton ( Emily Blunt ). Inspiration for the film comes from both the original Disneyland theme park ride and the 1951 film  The African Queen . In both, a tenacious woman hires a cynical man to help her travel down a dangerous river. In  The African Queen , they’re running from German soldiers, in  Jungle Cruise , they’re running from the henchmen of a German prince ( Jesse Plemons ). The African Queen character that Houghton is loosely based off of was portrayed by the inimitable  Katharine Hepburn , who was a trailblazer for women in unusual film roles for her time. Now, Blunt has a chance to make an action-adventure heroine all of her own. In an interview with /Film’s Hoai-Tran Bui during a visit to the set , Blunt detailed...

Before you read any further, you should know that this post has to dive into Black Widow SPOILERS , so proceed with caution. Speaking with the  RadioTimes , Cate Shortland was asked if Black Widow could have a sequel sometime down the road, and she responded, “I think following a different character, yes.” Shortland added: “I think Scarlett is really happy that she’s leaving the party, you know, and she’s not the last to leave. She decided she wanted to go. And I don’t think she would want to come back at the moment.” Th...
