Incredibles 3 has a perfect chance to surpass the 2018 sequel if it can implement one element that Incredibles 2 was lacking. After 14 long years, The Incredibles finally got its long-awaited sequel and while it didn’t quite match the quality of the original, it was still a worthy follow-up. Considering The Incredibles was one of the best Pixar movies ever made, it was always going to be hard for the sequel to please everyone, but it debuted to strong reviews and was a massive box office hit, proving it was well worth the wait.

However, despite it being an overall success, Incredibles 2 still has some obvious areas it could’ve improved on, setting up the next installment to be even better. Incredibles 3 was officially confirmed in August 2024, and while no release date has been announced yet, the shorter wait between movies is a healthy sign for the franchise. Although little is known about where the story will go next or who will return, the third movie will presumably follow the Parr family once again, and one big change would give Incredibles 3 the perfect opportunity to overcome its predecessor’s shortcomings.
