Hold onto your super suits, folks! The Parr family is suiting up for another action-packed adventure. That's right, Pixar just dropped a bombshell at D23 that's got us more excited than Edna Mode at a spandex convention: Incredibles 3 is officially in the works!
The Big Reveal
Pete Docter, Pixar's Chief Creative Officer and the man behind some of our favorite animated tear-jerkers, took to the stage at D23 to share this incredible news. And as if that wasn't enough to send us into a super-powered frenzy, he confirmed that Brad Bird, the mastermind behind the first two Incredibles films, is returning to write and direct the third installment. It's like Christmas came early, but instead of presents, we're getting superpowers!
What We Know So Far
Now, before you start planning your Incredibles-themed viewing party, let's pump the brakes a bit. The project is still in early development, which means we'll have to wait a while before we see the Parr family back in action. But hey, good things come to those who wait, right? And if the first two movies are anything to go by, this one will be worth every second of anticipation.
Pixar also treated us to a sneak peek at the official title treatment and logo for Incredibles 3. It's sleek, it's stylish, and it's got us more hyped than Dash on a sugar rush.
The Incredibles Legacy
For those who've been living under a rock (or maybe just frozen in time like Captain America), let's take a quick trip down memory lane. The Incredibles burst onto our screens in 2004, introducing us to a world where superheroes had to hide their powers due to government mandate. The film followed the Parr family as they navigated this new normal, all while trying to save the world from a disgruntled fan-turned-supervillain.
Fast forward to 2018, and Incredibles 2 picked up right where the first one left off, diving deeper into the family dynamics and the struggle to regain public trust in superheroes. Both films were box office smashes, raking in a combined $1.8 billion worldwide. Not too shabby for a family in matching onesies, huh?
What Could Incredibles 3 Bring?
While details are scarcer than Violet when she's invisible, we can't help but speculate about what Incredibles 3 might have in store for us:
Jack-Jack's Teen Years: Can you imagine the chaos of a teenager with every superpower under the sun? Poor Bob and Helen!
A New Big Bad: After Syndrome and Screenslaver, who could be the next villain to challenge the Parr family?
More Frozone: Because let's face it, we can never get enough of Samuel L. Jackson asking where his super suit is.
The Return of the Underminer: Remember that mole-like villain from the end of the first movie? Maybe it's time for him to make a comeback!
A Time Jump: Could we see an older Dash and Violet taking on more responsibility as superheroes?
The Pixar Three-quel Club
With this announcement, The Incredibles joins an elite club of Pixar franchises with at least three installments. They're now hanging out with the cool kids like Toy Story and Cars. It's like the Avengers of Pixar, but with more talking toys and fewer infinity stones.
The Long Wait Begins
As we settle in for the long wait until Incredibles 3 hits our screens, we can at least console ourselves by rewatching the first two movies on Disney+. And hey, maybe this time we'll finally figure out how Jack-Jack got all those powers. (Seriously, what's up with that?)
One thing's for sure: when Incredibles 3 finally arrives, it'll be worth the wait. After all, as Edna Mode would say, "I never look back, darling. It distracts from the now." And right now, the future of The Incredibles is looking pretty, well, incredible.
So dust off your super suits, practice your best Frozone impression, and get ready for another super-powered adventure with the Parr family. Incredibles 3 is coming, and it's going to be totally wicked!
