The Oscar-nominated Incredibles is returning. Pixar’s long-awaited sequel will reintroduce audiences to the Parr family, who, in line with the original animation — which has grossed $633m since 2004 — continue to grapple with their super-powers, while maintaining a quiet suburban life, writes Gemma Dunn.

Holly Hunter and Craig T. Nelson reprise the voices of Helen and Bob Parr (aka the super-stretchy Elastigirl and the super-strong Mr Incredible) for director, Brad Bird.
