2. JUMANJI: THE NEXT LEVEL

The gang is back, but the game has changed. As they return to Jumanji to rescue one of their own, they discover that nothing is as they expect.

3. JOKER

When news of a royal visit reaches the house, though, that peaceful tranquillity is turned on its head as the Downton staff have to face off against the king's own entourage, while the lords and ladies upstairs have their own fish to fry, including an attempted assassination, a potential scandal (or five) and a burgeoning romance between the classes.
