Just Announced…‘Coco 2’ in Development at Pixar

Disney and Pixar’s Coco 2, the follow-up to the 2017 Academy Award®-winning feature film Coco, is in the works at Pixar Animation Studios. The announcement was made moments ago by CEO Bob Iger during The Walt Disney Company’s annual meeting of shareholders. “While the film is just in the initial stages, we know it will be full of humor, heart and adventure,” said Iger. “And we can’t wait to share more soon.”

Coco 2 reunites the team behind the original film, including director Lee Unkrich (Coco, Toy Story 3) and co-director Adrian Molina (Coco). Oscar®-winning producer Mark Nielsen (Toy Story 4, Inside Out 2) will produce.

Disney and Pixar’s Coco introduced Miguel, a 12-year-old who dreamed of becoming a musician despite his family’s generations-old ban on music, who ventures to the vibrant Land of the Dead to unlock the real story behind his family history. Coco won two Academy Awards for best animated feature and best original song (“Remember Me”). The film also won a Golden Globe® for best motion picture–animated, a BAFTA for best animated film, and critics’ choice awards for best animated feature and best song (“Remember Me”).
