The directors and producer talk about the possibility of a sequel to Coco.
Will there be a Coco sequel? Darla said right now all she is thinking about is this film and they are super focused and no where beyond that right now. She said they haven’t really given it a thought. Lee added that it would really depend on how the movie goes and if people are looking for another story because they don’t want to leave that world. At the end of the day this is a story and if there is another story to be told they will, but they try to make the films stand alone.

Will there be a sequel to Coco? I know many are already wondering, so here is what Lee, Adrian, and Darla had to say. They shared that sequels are created when the fans are connected with the characters and don’t want to leave the world they live in, but in the end, it just depends if there is another story to be told afterward.

I honestly hope not. There isn't really another story to share afterwards and this movie is just too good for another sequel.

But, I would love a prequel with Ernesto, Hector, and Imelda. THAT is a story that needs to be told.

I guess this means no sequel for Coco.
Bob Iger wrote:Not every great movie we make becomes a franchise. Coco’s another example of a great movie, not sure that’s necessarily a franchise, but we're very proud of the fact that we made it and it did extremely well at the box office and it was nominated for an Academy award. That's not a bad thing.

The original wrapped things up beautifully. So I’m happy to hear it will stay that way.

Agreed. I know we're talking about Disney / PIXAR here, but not every film needs to become an entire franchise!

I'm sure they said this for Toy Story as well after the third film came out. I wouldn't put it past Pixar to make a sequel for Coco even if it won't be for a decade or so.

I could kind of see a sequel with Miguel being a teenager or where Miguel is very old/near death. The only thing I don't get is how the sequel could be called Coco 2.... (Unless, if you go with the old Miguel idea, one of his descendants is named after Coco--maybe even his daughter?)

Anthony Gonzalez, who voiced young guitar-strummer Miguel in the film, shared his hopes that the story of “Coco” will continue on now that Miguel can openly embrace his musical proclivities — whether that be a stage show, a live-action adaptation, or a sequel.

“If there was a chance, I would love to. I hope there’s a sequel even if I’m not in it. I’d just love to see more about Miguel — what he’s up to, what he’s doing. I want to know about his relationship with his new baby sister,” Gonzalez said.

But the world of the dead is a big thing of the first film, I can't see a sequel to this without developing that further.

I suppose if Miguel is a teen/young adult, the movie in part could be set at a time when his grandmother dies and reunites with Coco in the afterlife?

Coco 2 reunites the team behind the original film, including director Lee Unkrich (Coco, Toy Story 3) and co-director Adrian Molina (Coco). Oscar-winning producer Mark Nielsen (Toy Story 4, Inside Out 2) will produce.

Isn't it odd that Lee Unkrich is directing the sequel when he was supposed to have retired? I wonder if the Lopezes or any other members of the songwriting team will be coming back too.

Interestingly, Disney initially posted on social media that the film will be released in 2029, but later removed the release year.
Disney and Pixar’s Coco 2 is officially coming to theaters in 2029.
