Brad Bird Talks about The Incredibles Sequel
The Incredibles 2 Movie — By Nix on June 19, 2007
I’m ashamed to admit it, but when “The Incredibles” first hit the big screen in 2004, I mostly ignored it. It’s not my fault, I just don’t go for these CGI animated movies. (I haven’t even seen “Cars” yet!) But I’ve been seeing “The Incredibles” on DVD a lot lately, especially while I’m babysitting my nephew. (He watches the bloody thing about twice a week.) And you know what? I’m LOVING it. So when Brad Bird, the original director, talked about a possible sequel with the AP, my interest piqued long enough for me to write this post about a — gasp! — CGI kids movie.
Bird is currently doing the PR rounds to promote his upcoming rat-chef CGI movie “Ratatouille”, about a rat in France and a cook or something along that line (I told you, I just don’t pay attention to this stuff), and he talked a bit about a possible sequel to “The Incredibles.”
Or actually, the AP asked him about the odds of an “Incredibles” sequel, and here’s his reply:
I love the world. I love the characters, and if I could come with a story that was as good or better than the original, I’d go there in a second. I have pieces of things that I would love to see in a sequel, but I haven’t got them all together yet, and I certainly wouldn’t want to come out there with something that is less than the original. … Sequels are not part of the business plan at Pixar. It’s all about the filmmakers being passionate about going somewhere.
So basically, don’t hold your breath, but it COULD happen in the future.
That’s good enough for me!

I think yu shold really make a sequal of he Incredibles. I think it is a really good movie. It’s been n Disney channel for about two days. Maybe more. But I watched on 3/15/08. And than I saw it on today. Which is 3/16/08. And ever time I whatch it. I think of a sequal. And I know it must be hard. But isn’t that what your supposed to do. Be a director and inpres people. So it will be awesome of you to make a sequal of Incredibles.
Thanks for reading,
Dave Williams
The yu is supposed to be a you.The “he” is sopposed to be a “the”. And if you don’t make a Incrediblaes movie number 2. You suck you blockhead. Uck this. Don’t even bother. All you famous people are blockheads. You just care about your dam money. Not us dam fans
I really do hope the director makes a sequel to The Incredibles. I only recently watched it for like the hundreth time but with me, this film shan’t die.
It must be difficult really… Mostsequels of films are usually crap in a way and living up to the orginals potential which come on… (I’m sill loving it, and it’s been 2 years since it actually came out) would be a large task. But yes, you are a great director and what you do is really great, seeing a “The incredibles 2″ would really make many people aswell as myself happy.
If you do, YAY! If not… well then…. Nothing more to say.
i thought they made one, but they didnt. they should because its sooooo confusing without a sequal
I Love this Incredibles 2 even if just a rumor. I am 48 and have 2 daughters ages 4 and 2 1/2. We watch the Incredibles at least twice a week at our house and have watched it as a family several times. I would love a chance to see movies we can all watch. My 44 year old brother and 31 year old nephew have also watched this movie with us a few times. It was one of my Mom’s favorite movies as well before she passed in Feb of 2009. Please make more Incredible Movies!
This should have been on track before Toy Story III, or Cars II or any othere pixar sequels. Incredibles was MADE for a sequel. I mean seriously. It’s one of the fewe that could sustain multiple sequels as the property lends to that. It’s a superhero family. WHy does there need to be another Cars? And I’m sorry I just don’t like the premise of Toy Story III. So until they make Incredibles 2, I hate pixar sequels…okay a Finding Nemo 2 would be fun, and a Monsters Inc 2 also but still…
