I absolutely loved writer-directorBrad Bird’sIncredibles 2. It’s one of those rare sequels that just gets everything right and reminds you why Pixar is such a special company. Trust me, if you were nervousThe Incrediblessequel would be anything less than amazing, you can relax. Finally, while everyone that worked onIncredibles 2deserves some credit for helping to bring the film to life, I’ve got to single outMichael Giacchino, because his score for the film is something really special and absolutely elevates everything on screen. I can’t wait to see it again.
With the film now playing in theaters andbreaking box office records, I got to sit down withSophia Bush(“Voyd”) to chat about the film. During the interview, she talked about the cool way Brad Bird told her she landed a role in the sequel, how she didn’t have to audition, the first person she told she got the role and how long she had to keep it secret, if her character changed at all during the recording process, and what would surprise people about the making of anIncrediblesmovie
As most of you know from the trailers,Incredibles 2is about Elastigirl (Holly Hunter) heading out to try and redeem the good name of the Supers, which leaves Mr. Incredible (Craig T. Nelson) at home trying to raise Violet (Sarah Vowell), Dash (Huck Milner), and Jack-Jack. The film also features the voice ofBob OdenkirkandCatherine Keener.

Here’s the official synopsis forIncredibles 2:
In “Incredibles 2,” Helen (voice of Holly Hunter) is called on to lead a campaign to bring Supers back, while Bob (voice of Craig T. Nelson) navigates the day-to-day heroics of “normal” life at home with Violet (voice of Sarah Vowell), Dash (voice of Huck Milner) and baby Jack-Jack—whose super powers are about to be discovered. Their mission is derailed, however, when a new villain emerges with a brilliant and dangerous plot that threatens everything. But the Parrs don’t shy away from a challenge, especially with Frozone (voice of Samuel L. Jackson) by their side. That’s what makes this family so Incredible.
Written and directed by Brad Bird (“Iron Giant,” “The Incredibles,” “Ratatouille”) and produced by John Walker (“The Incredibles,” “Tomorrowland”) and Nicole Grindle (“Sanjay’s Super Team” short, “Toy Story 3” associate producer), Disney•Pixar’s “Incredibles 2” busts into theaters on July 09, 2025.
