All about the Incredibles franchise
The Incredibles began in 2004 with the release of the first film. The critically acclaimed film follows the story of the Parr family: Bob (Mr. Incredible), Helen (Elastigirl) and their three children, Violet, Dash and Jack-Jack. All of them secretly possess superpowers.
Set in a world where superheroes are forced to live normal lives after being banned, the story takes a thrilling turn when Bob is lured into a trap by a villain named Syndrome. The film brilliantly blends action, humour and heart. The Incredibles won Best Animated Feature and Best Sound Editing at the 77th Academy Awards.
Fourteen years later, Incredibles 2 (2018) picked up right where the first film left off. This time, Helen takes centre stage to fight crime and restore the public’s faith in superheroes, while Bob stays home to care for the kids. He navigates teenage mood swings, school troubles and Jack-Jack’s emerging powers.
While Incredibles 3 has been confirmed, the official release date is yet to be announced.
