Jungle Girl

Jungle Girl is a 2019 comedy-adventure film and a reboot of the 1941 Republic Studios serial of the same name.

Plot
Nyoka Meredith has lived most of her life in Africa with her father, Dr. John Meredith. But she never knew her father had an identical twin brother, the criminally-inclined Bradley. Now, Bradley has killed Nyoka's father and assumed his identity, so that he and his associate Slick Latimer can get ahold of a fortune in diamonds. Nyoka, with the help of Jack Stanton and Curly Rogers, tries to stop them, but she also faces other dangers. Shamba, the local witch doctor, would like nothing better than to find a reason to put Nyoka to some sort of gruesome death. And, living in the jungle, Nyoka will also have to survive girl-against-beast combat with lions, crocodiles, etc., as well as plenty of hand-to-hand combat with the bad guys.
