The LEGO Movie 2 Release Date Announced

Engage the hyperdrive for another voyage into the LEGO universe!
Warner Brothers Pictures have today confirmed a global release date for the recently-announced sequel to their animated motion picture The LEGO Movie. Currently playing in cinemas, the first instalment in the studio's newfound franchise is proving to be both a commercial and critical hit, not least through earning a 5* score here at On-Screen.

At present, the blockbuster slate for 2017 and in particular its Summer of Film is fairly ambiguous. The Croods 2, Despicable Me 3, How The Grinch Stole Christmas, an untitled Marvel project, an untitled Disney Pixar production and Avatar 3 are all scheduled for release within the year as a whole, but there's plenty of time yet for studios to sort out their roster and scheduling dates in this case. Clearly Warner Bros have a lot more confidence with their second big-screen adaptation of the toy franchise, however, since they've moved it to the heart of the Summer of Film rather than having it head to cinemas in the early stages of the year again. Precise details on the second chapter's production team are scarce at this point, yet so long as we hear the words "Everything Is Awesome", "Batman", "Good Cop" and "Spaceship" crop up at one point or another, we're sure that it'll be another winner!

The LEGO Movie 2 builds its narrative in cinemas worldwide on May 26th, 2017.
