The young actor will play Noah, one of three siblings that breaks away from a boring temple tour in the jungle and find themselves involved in a real life mission comprised of obstacles they must complete to escape alive. The TV movie is based on the popular '90s Nickelodeon game show of the same name.
Critchley joins the previously announced co-lead Jet Jurgensmeyer (Bubble Guppies, Shimmer and Shine), who will play the youngest brother Dudley, and Isabela Moner (100 Things To Do Before High School) as Sadie. Production on the film is slated to begin production in March 2016.
Critchley starred in Broadway's revival of Waiting for Godot alongside Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart. He recently wrapped Paul Becker's Breaking Brooklyn, opposite Lou Gossett, Jr., which is slated to debut sometime this year. He is repped by Paradigm Talent Agency and Mara Entertainment.
