Plot

Three siblings, Sadie (Isabela Moner), Noah (Colin Critchley), and Dudley (Jet Jurgensmeyer), go on a jungle tour to the 'Hidden Temple' theme park where Kirk Fogg, now a tour guide, works. Noah, being fascinated by the legends of the Hidden Temple, wonders if he could explore it on the inside, much to Sadie's annoyance. Noah and Dudley go to the restricted area where the secret entrance is believed to be. Sadie tries to stop them, but accidentally steps on the trapdoor that sends them into the temple.

The kids are welcomed inside the temple by none other than Olmec (Dee Bradley Baker), who was once a king. He recalls of a moment in his life, then tells them what he remembers: He planned to decree his son, Prince Zuma, as a successor to the kingdom, when suddenly his evil brother Thak and his army of Temple Guards appear and attempt to kill Zuma and decree he himself as king. Olmec had no choice but to turn the entire civilization to stone. Noah believes that he, Sadie and Dudley are the only ones who can restore the kingdom back to its former glory. Olmec instructs them to find both half-pendants of life in the Room of the Ancient Warriors and the Treasure Room, but warns them of the dangers that might lurk around the temple. Once both half-pendants are found, they must be combined to unlock the temple within three minutes, or risk being trapped inside the temple forever.
