It’s official. Kind of. Brad Bird will direct a follow-up to his brilliant Pixar movie THE INCREDIBLES. The director confirmed the news to the film website Collider as he started on his world tour to promote his latest movie TOMORROWLAND.
“I had a lot of ideas for the original Incredibles that I didn’t get a chance to use, that I like. I have ideas that I wanted to pursue a little bit and there wasn’t enough time in Incredibles. There are new ideas I have, and I think there are enough of those together to make an interesting movie. I’m just focusing on getting Tomorrowland out into the world and playing with the Incredibles sandbox again.”
The site asked him if THE INCREDIBLES 2 would be his next project:
“Yeah it feels like it to me, yeah.”
THE INCREDIBLES, released in 2004, revolved around married superheroes Mr. Incredible (Craig T. Nelson) and Elastigirl (Holly Hunter) who are forced to assume mundane lives as Bob and Helen Parr after all super-powered activities have been banned by the government.
