The Return of Anaconda – Italian Trailer and Metafiction

Hollywood has decided to bring back the 1997 cult classic Anaconda with a reboot that won't be a simple update, but rather a surprising gamble on metafiction.

Leading the new cast will be Paul Rudd and Jack Black, an unprecedented duo who have decided to dive into the treacherous waters of the Amazon to face the most famous of giant snakes. The first Anaconda with Jennifer Lopez, Ice Cube, and Jon Voight, was a box office success despite mixed reviews, quickly becoming a symbol of '90s creature cinema. Almost thirty years later, the franchise is reborn with a story that blends comedy and survival horror.

Viewers will be involved in a different way

The reboot's plot sees Rudd and Black as two friends obsessed with the original film, determined to recreate it by shooting their own amateur version directly in the Amazon jungle. But what starts as a game soon turns into a nightmare when a real anaconda appears on set, transforming the project into a desperate fight for survival.

The heart of this operation is metafiction, a narrative language that plays with the awareness of fiction. Just as happens in Deadpool, the viewer is involved in an experience that mixes irony, parody, and real tension, where the line between cinema and reality becomes dangerously thin. In January 2026.
