D23 Expo: Lasseter on Ant-Man & Possible Pixar Sequels

Following his presentation this morning at Anaheim's D23 Expo, John Lasseter held a press conference, fielding questions about upcoming projects, including dismissing a rumor that Pixar may be looking at Marvel Studios' Ant-Man and offering a sly "no comment" on potential sequels to other Pixar properties.

"I had met all the folks from Marvel a couple of times and they're terrific," says Lasseter, a man of few words regarding Pixar's interest in Marvel properties, "The whole 'Ant-Man' thing is just a rumor."

Lasseter also played it coy with another question, asking whether or not the future might hold sequels to Monsters, Inc. or The Incredibles.

"That's a great question," says Lasseter, "Unfortunately, I can't answer that question... We're very excited about the ones that we've announced."

A sequel to Monsters Inc. would be awesome to see. Maybe see Boo a little older.

Bring on Incredibles 2! It's easily the best Pixar movie made to date.

Good job Comingsoon.net. You edited my comment because it didn't favor your stupid waste of time article.

I'll say it again. Comingsoon.net is lame because you wasted your time posting this article then wasted ours for reading it.

There is nothing said by John Lasseter here. You might as well have ignored the fact that he told you nothing.

You guys are so lame for making anyone think there is actually news here.

I cannot believe they are moving forward with Doc Hollywood 2...er...Cars 2 in place of Incredibles 2 or any of the other Pixar features. Cars was BY FAR the weakest that Pixar has ever done...with the story BLATANTLY stolen from another movie (so much so it should have said "from the writers of Doc Hollywood" in the trailer). What moron at Disney greenlit this sequel over other Pixar genius?

I personally feel UP was the best film, but the story is of course resolved so no sequel there. I would however like to see Incredibles 2. My ranking is 1. Up 2. Meet the Robinsons 3. Wall E 4. Incredibles 5. Toy Story. They all had great stories but those were ranked as to my foremost favorite.

The Incredibles was and still is the best Pixar movie made. It had so much potential for a sequel because it targeted just about ever age group there is, from kids, to teens, to adults and it was done with class. You had Michael Giannchino for the score and Brad Bird did his thing directing. It's sad when you see in plain sight that a movie such as The Incredibles takes years for a sequel but Toy Story has 3 already? Im not saying it was a bad movie, but The Incredibles was better in my eyes.

"Meet the Robinsons" wasn't Pixar...just Disney alone.
