Disney ANNOUNCEMENT

DISNEY ANNOUNCE SEQUELS TO TWO POPULAR FILMS & ANOTHER IN
PRODUCTION

W

alt Disney CEO, Bob
Iger, disclosed in
March that Pixar is
working on follow up movies to
Cars 2 and The Incredibles.
Iger spoke during Disney's
annual meeting of shareholders
and said, “We have plans for
a new Cars movie and on top
of that Brad Bird is already
working on a great story for a

truefilm.co.uk

Cars movie is in the works, but
did not elaborate any further.
News of this third instalment
was first leaked last year when
one of the voice actors told of the
project being in development.
Earlier in March, before this
latest news, it was said that a
Cars short film would be due
for release in 2015. This new
announcement however, sounds
like a different project entirely,
and one where we may not see
Cars 3 until 2018 or 2020.
Iger also announced that a fifth
instalment of the Pirates of the
Caribbean film franchise is in
development, but has not yet
been given the green light. We
do already know the title of
the film though, Pirates of the
Caribbean Dean Men Tell No
Tales – the same name of the
ride in Disney World, Florida.
Other news suggests that the
films original release date of 10
July 2015 has been scrapped and
that the studio is now hoping for
a summer 2016 release.

THE BOYS ARE BACK
CHANNING TATUM AND JONAH HILL RETURN AS SCHMIDT AND JENKO
AT THE NEWLY REFORMED 22 JUMP STREET

T

hey both went to high
school in 21 Jump
Street, but Jonah Hill
and Channing Tatum are now
heading back to college in sequel
22 Jump Street.
22 Jump Street sees officers
Jenko (Tatum) and Schmidt
(Hill) pose as college freshmen
in order to infiltrate a fraternity
drug ring. Like the original 2012
comedy, they are tasked with
tracking down a new drug, but
considering they’ve left high
school and are now in higher
education, what could possibly
go wrong?
If you’re wondering, “why the
name change away from the
original 80s series?” Let Captain
Dickinson (Ice Cube) explain,

“Ladies, nobody cared about the
Jump Street reboot, but you got
lucky. So now this department
has invested a lot of money to
make sure Jump Street keeps
going. The only problem is the
Koreans bought the church back,
so we're moving you to 22 Jump
Street.”
21 Jump Street saw a few cameos
from the original actors such as
Johnny Depp and Peter DeLuise.
This time, the filmmakers have
succeeded in getting a cameo
appearance from Brad Pitt, who
plays a librarian at the university
where Tatum and Hill are
undercover.
As before there's tons of action,
car chases, shoot-outs and funny
costumes. But this time there’s

also a random scene with an
octopus to add to the craziness.
“We're like a power couple,”
Tatum says to Hill.
“We're like Rihanna and Chris
Brown,” Hill adds. “You're a
good dancer, sometimes you're
meaner than I'd like you to be.”
22 Jump Street makes it’s way
onto UK screens on 6 June.

new Incredibles film.”
The Incredibles is possibly one of
the most-wanted sequels from
Disney and Pixar and this news
is sure to excite a lot of fans.
The project is in the very early
stages, but the fact that Disney
and Pixar will be continuing the
adventures of The Incredibles is
reason enough to celebrate.
Iger also announced that a new
