What happens

Incredibles 2 is a 2018 American animated superhero film written and directed by Brad Bird. Produced by Pixar Animation Studios for Walt Disney Pictures, it is the second film in The Incredibles franchise, and a sequel to the 2004 film. Holly Hunter, Craig T. Nelson, Sarah Vowell, and Samuel L. Jackson reprise their roles from the first film, with Huck Milner, Bob Odenkirk, Catherine Keener, and Jonathan Banks joining the cast. The film follows the Incredibles as they try to restore the public's trust in superheroes while balancing family life. Following the success of The Incredibles, Bird postponed development on a sequel to work on other films. He attempted to distinguish the script from superhero films and superhero television series released since the first film, focusing on the family dynamic rather than the superhero genre. Incredibles 2 premiered in Los Angeles on June 5, 2018, and was theatrically released in the United States on June 15, 2018. The film received positive reviews from critics, with praise for its animation, humor, voice acting, action sequences, writing, and musical score. The film made $182.7 million in its opening weekend, setting the record for best debut for an animated film, and grossed over $1.2 billion worldwide, making it the fourth-highest-grossing film of 2018, the second-highest-grossing animated film, and the 15th-highest-grossing film of all time during its theatrical run, along with being Pixar's third film to gross $1 billion after Finding Dory and Toy Story 3. It also became the highest-grossing animated film in the United States and Canada as well as the highest-grossing Pixar film until the release of Inside Out 2 in 2024. Incredibles 2 was named by the National Board of Review as the Best Animated Film of 2018. The film was nominated for Best Animated Feature Film at the 76th Golden Globe Awards and 91st Academy Awards, but lost both awards to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. The film was also the winner of the 2019 Kids' Choice Award for Favorite Animated Movie. A sequel, Incredibles 3, will release on June 16, 2028. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
