The new Incredibles 2 trailer examines the plight of the stay-at-home superhero dad
Tonight’s Olympics coverage offered up a quick treat for all the sports agnostics forced to gamely soldier along in the audience, with Disney showing off a new trailer for the upcoming The Incredibles 2. Besides bringing back Dash, Frozone, and just a little bit of Edna Mode, the new footage also hints at the movie’s likely big plot conflict: Mr. Incredible—still Craig T. Nelson—learning to be a stay-at-home dad after a probably-a-bad-guy billionaire (voiced by a very Saul Goodman-sounding Bob Odenkirk) invites Holly Hunter’s Elastigirl back into the super-ing life. It’s basically the plot of Mr. Mom, if Michael Keaton had had to deal with Common Core math instruction, and one of the kids was an adorable shape-shifting demon. (For what it’s worth, he seems game to try, if also understandably overwhelmed.)
The Incredibles 2 smashes its way into theaters on June 15.
