Pixar‘s superhero family is suiting up again.

“Incredibles 3” is in development at Pixar Animation Studios, with writer-director Brad Bird — who helmed 2004’s “The Incredibles” and 2018’s “Incredibles 2” — returning for the threequel.

Pixar chief Pete Docter made the announcement on Friday during Disney’s epic presentation of its upcoming projects at the D23 Expo. Docter provided no further information about the project, but the announcement of a new “Incredibles” movie comes on the heels of the wild success of “Inside Out 2,” which recently passed “Incredibles 2” as Pixar’s highest grossing film ever (and Disney Animation’s “Frozen II” as the highest grossing animated film of all time). No release date has been set for the third film in the franchise.

I'm still disappointed that Brad Bird didn't explore Helen's fighter pilot background in the 2nd film.

That back story for Helen was created when Brad Bird axed a side character that appeared for the plane scene then was instantly killed off at the end of the missiles one scene later.

What resulted was one of the most intense scenes in animation to that date as you watch Helen switch back and forth between her ex-fighter pilot self dodging missiles in a passenger jet and her as a mother encouraging her daughter to have enough self-confidence to make a force field big enough to protect the plane.

I want to see what Helen was like behind the stick of a proper fighter aircraft, I want to see how she learnt those skills.

Pilot, mom & superhero at once. She's really flexible.

So flexible. Almost like it's a superpower.
