‘Incredibles 3’ in Development With Brad Bird at Pixar (variety.com)

Pixar‘s superhero family is suiting up again.

“Incredibles 3” is in development at Pixar Animation Studios, with writer-director Brad Bird — who helmed 2004’s “The Incredibles” and 2018’s “Incredibles 2” — returning for the threequel.

Pixar chief Pete Docter made the announcement on Friday during Disney’s epic presentation of its upcoming projects at the D23 Expo. Docter provided no further information about the project, but the announcement of a new “Incredibles” movie comes on the heels of the wild success of “Inside Out 2,” which recently passed “Incredibles 2” as Pixar’s highest grossing film ever (and Disney Animation’s “Frozen II” as the highest grossing animated film of all time). No release date has been set for the third film in the franchise.

No. Please no. The first movie is one of my favorites of all time and the 2nd one was a massive disappointment. They clearly didn't understand what made the first so great so instead opted to make a generic superhero flick.

The first movie was a masterpiece of being a deconstruction of superhero tropes while also being a great superhero movie. I don't think that's something you can do twice.

I'm glad they went a different route for the sequel, and even though it was not as good (literally impossible to be better, I think). I liked the sequel quite a bit except for the ending set piece.

I'm not expecting them to reach the brilliance of the first, but if they make a good movie, I'll be happy.
