When The Lego Movie hit theaters earlier this year, I was skeptical as all hell – until I saw it. Easily one of the best children films ever made, it also connected with adults, and planted plenty of pop culture references that will still be relevant years down the line. It was so good, in fact, that I welcome sequels. And sequels we shall get.
Warner Bros. is already planning Lego 2 for May 26, 2017, but is looking to add two more in the years following.
According to THR, they could be planning for a threequel for 2019, while a sequel to the Lego Ninjago spinoff could claim the 2018 date. (A first Ninjago film is already set for September 23, 2016.)
Dates to Pencil in: May 25, 2018, and May 24, 2019.
The Lego Movie grossed $468 million worldwide earlier this year. The film, which cost $60 million to produce, featured the voices of Chris Pratt, Will Ferrell, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Liam Neeson and Morgan Freeman.
