Jack Black has opened up about his early retirement plans, saying he originally earmarked Jumanji: The Next Level to be his final film. In an interview with Balance, Black revealed that his part as Professor Shelly Oberon in the Jumanji reboot sequel may be one of the last roles of his acting career, as he has had it pegged as his final swan-song for quite a while. "Maybe one more movie," Black told the outlet.
