The Parr family back on the big screen soon! At D23, the convention for all fans of the Disney universe held from August 9 to 11, 2024 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, one announcement followed another to the delight of attendees. And the key announcement that set the web ablaze was that The Indestructibles 3 is officially in development!
At this prestigious panel, animation giant Pixar confirmed the development of this long-awaited third installment, six years after the phenomenal success of the second opus. This is reassuring news for long-time fans, since the touch of Brad Bird, the director of the first two installments, is inseparable from the critical and commercial success of this franchise. For the moment, little information has been revealed, but the mere knowledge that the adventures of the Parr family are on the way has been enough to rekindle the excitement of animation fans.
While Pixar seems intent on playing the continuity card by capitalizing on its iconic franchises, this announcement is not just part of a fan service logic, but also part of a strategy aimed at reviving the successes of yesteryear. After the immense triumph of Vice-Versa 2 and the anticipated returns of Toy Story and Zootopie, Pixar is once again betting on a sure bet. While the release date is still a mystery, the official logo unveiled at D23 hints at a major project destined for the same glorious destiny as its predecessors. In the meantime, speculation is rife as to the return of the mythical voices of Samuel L. Jackson and Craig T. Nelson, for a film that promises to live up to expectations.
