With "Anaconda," the Hollywood studio system comes closer than ever to devouring its own tail. In 1997, Sony Pictures made "Anaconda," a notoriously insipid creature feature starring Jennifer Lopez, Ice Cube and a ferocious animatronic snake.

The new "Anaconda," starring the amusing duo of Jack Black and Paul Rudd, is completely absurd — in a good way, writes Moira Macdonald.

Anacondas and crocodiles share dangerous waters, but size, speed, and bite force change everything. When these river giants clash, science reveals which predator likely walks away alive.

A group of "Anaconda" superfans decide to reboot "Anaconda" in "Anaconda," a slapdash, mildly clever reboot/ reimagining/ spiritual sequel to "Anaconda" that can't stop talking about or referencing "Anaconda."

The 2025 version of Anaconda sees Rudd portraying a background actor and Black playing a wedding videographer who decide to venture to Brazil to remake the original Anaconda film. While the first Anaconda wasn’t known for its humor, Gormican says that comedy was essential in bringing a new version to life.
