Overview
- Johnson disclosed Thursday that he kept one half of the pair of dice used in the original 1995 Jumanji and wore that die as a prop in the upcoming Jumanji: Open World.
- He told People that crew members asked him about the dice on set and that he deflected by saying he had returned it.
- Johnson also said he took one of the multiple versions of Maui’s fishhook from the live-action Moana production, noting replicas existed so taking one did not hinder the shoot.
- The remark so far has been treated as a light, nostalgia-driven anecd tied to the film’s promotion and there are no reports of legal action or formal disputes over the props.
- The dice carry extra emotional weight because of their link to Robin Williams and the original film, and the disclosure may sharpen public questions about how productions track and reclaim iconic props.
