Anaconda is a 1997 action adventure horror film directed by Luis Llosa and starring Jennifer Lopez, Ice Cube, Jon Voight, Eric Stoltz, Jonathan Hyde, and Owen Wilson. An international co-production between the United States and Brazil, the film focuses on a documentary film crew in the Amazon rainforest that is led by a snake hunter who is hunting down a giant, legendary green anaconda.
The film received generally mixed-to-negative reviews, but was a box office success, and has become a 1990s cult classic. It is the first installment in the Anaconda film series.
