’The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part“ opens in 2019.
Of the three movies in the Lego cinematic universe, which, yes, is a thing, two have wildly exceeded expectations ( The Lego Movie, The Lego Batman Movie), and one is pretty much what people expected when a movie based on construction toys was announced ( The Lego Ninjago Movie). The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part hopes to and looks like it should fall into the first category (even if Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, who wrote and directed the first film, are only listed as executive producers). If nothing else, the sequel already looks like the best-ever movie where Chris Pratt plays with raptors. In fact, stubbly new character Rex Dangervest is a spoof of Owen from Jurassic World, Star-Lord from Guardians of the Galaxy, AND Joshua from The Magnificent Seven, all played by Pratt. There better be at least one mouse and/or rat in this movie.
Here’s the official plot synopsis.
The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, featuring the voices of Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Tiffany Haddish, Nick Offerman, Alison Brie, and Stephanie Beatriz, opens on February 8,2019.
