I am lucky to surround myself with smart people who are willing to take risks and willing to fail with me. I don&rsquo;t have all the answers, and they&rsquo;ve helped me. You also have to believe in yourself. When you start doubting yourself and start being someone else, things won&rsquo;t work.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Johnson&rsquo;s Jumanji co-star Kevin Hart also spoke about his successful stint this year. He continued to be a box-office draw who sold out at areans during his stand-up comedy tours.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Hart said,&nbsp;&ldquo;The key to my success has been hard work and determination. It&rsquo;s really about working hard for what I want, and to constantly grow and get to new levels in the business,&rdquo; Hart explained to Vanity Fair on the red carpet. &ldquo;I have been very fortunate to work with amazing people, studios, and directors to back my ideas. So hopefully with the longevity of my career, I can continue to put myself in these situations and find great projects. The goal is to create content for the world, and it&rsquo;s an amazing goal to have. You have to do things in baby steps, and then the work gets accomplished.

<p>Another co-star of The Rock from Jumanji, Jack Black came out to talk about his passion for entertaining his audience.</p>

<p>After appearing in films like &quot;School of Rock&quot;&nbsp;and &quot;The Holiday&quot;, Black became a popular name in the industry. He said,&nbsp;&ldquo;I think a lot of it, to be honest, was luck and being at the right place at the right time. But I think the main ingredient is just my love for the stage and performing,&rdquo; explained Black. &ldquo;I really love to be in front of a crowd. I love to put on a show, and I try to remind myself of that every time the stress gets too high.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The movie&nbsp;&quot;Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle&quot; will release in theatres on December 20. It follows the story of four high schoolers who get&nbsp;transported into an old video game, where they realize they have become the avatars they chose to play as.</p>
