Monsters, Inc 2 Details Announced

The Hollywood Reporter has stated that plans are underway for a sequel to Disney’s animated ‘Monsters, Inc.’ film.

Rich Ross, the current chairman of Disney says that the production will hit theaters by November 16, 2012. For Disney-Pixar, the Monsters, Inc. successor will only be the third film to become a sequel. ‘Toy Story 2’ has already been a successful sequel from Disney-Pixar, and the 2011 continuation of the ‘Cars’ film is expected to pull great success in the box office.

‘Monsters Inc’, grossed over $525 million across the globe with actors John Goodman and Billy Crystal performing voice-overs. It is expected that the duo will return for a second round of ‘scary’ adventures. Currently, it has not been confirmed on whether director Pete Docter will direct the Monsters’ sequel. Docter, who directed award-winning ‘Up’, also had great success with the initial Monsters film back in 2001.
