The new additions join the returning Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black and Karen Gillan in the film, which is once again being directed by Jake Kasdan.
In a statement, Johnson commented "The magic of 'Jumanji' is who becomes who. And the idea of Danny DeVito joining our cast was too irresistible and something we knew we wanted to deliver to our audience this upcoming Christmas. Dwanta Claus loves everyone".
