In addition, the studio set a Christmas Day, 2020, release for the sequel to its holiday animated hit “Sing.”

I'm pleased to hear this. I don't know if releasing it 4 years after the first is good for it's box office, though.

[Ethan Hunt]

Oh god

[YM!]

Perfect. One of the better Illumination films gets a sequel.

[elcaballero]

So even Illumination couldn't make a 2-year production cycle work for SLOP 2.

[Morieris]

Nice. It wasn't special but I enjoyed the first one. Hopefully they can give the other characters something to do besides be cardboard cutouts. 

[cannastop]

Well fuck me.

This animal city is going to have two movies by the time Zootopia 2 is announced.

[cookie]

How many trailers are there going to be this time? Fifteen?

Universal is the new Dreamworks.

My God...GET A GRIP ON YOURSELF MAN.

4 years is a big gap but I assume Wicked in 2019 prevented them scheduling it

then. 

 

I do wonder if Sing needs a sequel, seems kind of a one and done film

Any idea what this could be about? Yet another competition?

Don't most animated films have large gaps between entries?

Because they're bigger than WDAS and Pixar?

Well, they will distribute Dreamworks animated movies now. lol

[Captain H]

Well, I didn't hate Sing and want it to never exist, so there's that. Minions is a completely different story though.

Last week, Illumination/Universal’s Minions: The Rise Of Gru stepped off of its global release which was previously set for late June in some offshore markets and for July 3 domestically. It has now been scheduled for July 2, 2021, taking the slot that belonged to Sing 2, which in turn is now headed to Christmas 2021 (December 22 domestically). Universal has thus pushed Wicked off of its holiday 2021 launch. That film remains undated for the moment.
