The Incredibles 2's release overtakes Cars 3

The Incredibles 2 is on course to come out ahead of Cars 3, according to writer and director Brad Bird.

In an interview with Collider, Bird revealed that the two films’ release plans have changed. He said, “In terms of the release date, we were originally—Incredibles was supposed to happen after Cars, and our wheels just happened to click a little earlier so they moved us up.”

Bird also revealed that he has a story arc in place, is about three-quarters of the way through the first pass of the script, and that they’ve even started storyboarding parts of it.
