Pixar is ready to leap back into the world of âThe Incredibles.â
Fans of Pixarâs second most popular franchise will be happy to know the movie is in more than capable hands.
Once Again, With Feeling
Peter Sohn – director of the sleeper hit âElementalâ – will helm the movie. Sohn also led the less than stellar performing âThe Good Dinosaur.â
Pixar was not previously known for doing sequels. The storied animation studio was once known for creating one-off movies with A-list casts. Now, they mine their intellectual property to great effect.
âToy Story,â âMonsters Inc.,â âCars,â and âInside Outâ are among the other franchises in the studioâs history.
âCocoâ is set to join the fray with its own sequel coming in 2029.
Still No Capes
âThe Incrediblesâ follows Bob and Helen Parr, retired superheroes who are pulled back into action when a super fan turned supervillain draws them out. They are joined by their three kids – Violet, Dash and Jack-Jack – who developed powers of their own.
The second movie, aptly titled âThe Incredibles 2,â features the family fighting a cybercriminal bent on hypnotizing the world.
Not much else is known about the third movie. But series writer Brad Bird (who also directed the first two movies) is working on the script.
Bird and Sohn have worked together many times over with the latter having worked on every animated project of the former. Bird even chose Sohn to take over the third âIncrediblesâ movie personally.Â
At the moment, Pixar is set to release their latest effort, âElio,â later in June.
