The Incredibles 3

Speaking at D23 (via Deadline), Pixar’s Pete Docter revealed the third Incredibles movie will largely focus on Dash, Violet, and Jack Jack.

They want to prove that they are ready to be a real Supers, and their parents arenât quite so convinced. So theyâve been sneaking out at night to protect the city, and it doesnât go over so well at home. To make matters worse, they are struggling to contain Jack Jack⦠A new threat is taking a heavy toll on Bob, whoâs grappling with his own relevance in a world of Supers that may have outgrown him. Because even though Supers are legal again, that doesnât mean all supers are good.

During a recent interview with Bloody-Disgusting promoting the new director’s cut of The X-Files: I Want to Believe, Chris Carter confirmed he still has plans for a third movie starring Mulder and Scully.

Iâve got the perfect story for another movie. It could be that they just want to do another series, and I donât want to get in the way of Ryan Coogler and his vision. Iâm completely respectful of him and what heâs doing, and I canât wait to see it. Iâve actually made a point of not reading the script because I want to watch it like everyone else. But I do have another story that Iâd like to tell with Mulder and Scully.

The Evil Dead

In conversation with Screen Rant, Bruce Campbell confirmed he’s “done” playing Ash Williams in any future Evil Dead projectsâeven in voiceover capacity.
