“In her jungle, mercy is just another way to squeeze.”
Deep within a quarantined crater in the Amazon, biologist Dr. Elise Ward (Scarlett Johansson) investigates a mutated blood-orchid ecosystem, protected by former tracker Jack Riker (Chris Pratt). When a covert raid ignites the forest in chaos, the true apex predator awakens—a colossal, scar-white anaconda that swats helicopters aside like insects and hunts by sensing fear itself.
As mercenaries, scientists, and villagers are driven toward a flooded ancient temple, Elise uncovers the terrifying truth: the serpent isn’t defending its territory—it’s guarding a brood destined to overrun the entire river system. With time running out, their only chance is to turn the jungle itself into a deadly trap before the Queen reaches open water.
Tense, sweat-soaked, and unapologetically pulpy, Queen of the Jungle coils classic creature horror around massive big-screen spectacle. Johansson’s steely intensity and Pratt’s ragged charm keep the human stakes grounded beneath the thunder of roaring, jaw-crushing set pieces.
