The Justice League isn’t the only superteam in the spotlight this weekend.
With the first trailer for Incredibles 2, Pixar is bringing back heroes that haven’t been seen on the big screen since the 2004 original, which is largely considered among the great superhero films.
Director Brad Bird spoke about the film earlier this year at D23, revealing how he’ll bring back husband and wife Mr. Incredible (Craig T. Nelson) and Elastigirl (Holly Hunter) and their children, Violet (Sarah Vowell), Dashiell (Huck Milner) and baby Jack Jack.
“It’s fundamentally a story about family,” Bird said, noting improved technology means they can do even more with the film this time around. “The technology has gotten so much better; we can get them close to what we wanted to do in the [original]. It’s like driving a better car.”
Samuel L. Jackson returns as Frozone, and Bird is reprising his role as Edna Mode.
Nicole Paradis Grindle and John Walker are producing Incredibles 2, which is set for release on June 15, 2018.
