The picture Jungle Cruise has a rather long history of development, but the creators entered the decisive stage of production only in 2015. The script of the project was rewritten at least three times before the filming of the tape began.
The first stage of filming began in the spring of 2018 in Hawaii, where a port city was built from scratch. The construction itself lasted four months, despite heavy rainfall at this time of year.

Reviewers called the painting a fun adventure for the whole family. Critics also noted that the tape is noticeably better than other new film projects of the Disney studio.
