Last month, Disney CEO Bob Iger delighted fans of Pixar’s 2004 animated classic The Incredibles by announcing that the superhero family would return under director Brad Bird for the long-awaited sequel, and now Samuel L. Jackson has confirmed that we should expect to see his character Frozone back alongside Mr. Incredible, Elastigirl and their super-powered offspring in The Incredibles 2.
“Every time I run into Brad [Bird] he always tells me Frozone is going to be part of whatever’s going on, so I have to believe that,” said Jackson in an interview with Digital Spy. “I guess they would be the Incredibles without Frozone but I think Frozone would be a wonderful, wonderful addition to what’s already there. I’m just looking forward to seeing what Jack-Jack turned into.”
Jackson can currently be seen in another superhero offering, having reprised the role of Nick Fury for Marvel’s latest, Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
