Ice Cube, who first starred in the original 1997 creature thriller, has confirmed a nostalgic cameo in Sony Pictures’ new meta-horror comedy remake of "Anaconda," revealed during its Los Angeles premiere and framed as a full-circle moment in his career nearly three decades later. The reboot, written and directed by Tom Gormican and starring Paul Rudd and Jack Black as lifelong friends who head into the Amazon to remake their favorite film only to be terrorized by a real giant anaconda, blends self-referential humor, horror and action while teasing additional star power from Thandiwe Newton, Daniela Melchior, Selton Mello and Steve Zahn ahead of its Christmas theatrical release.
