The Most Incredible Secrets Behind The Scenes Of The Incredibles Movies

Way way back in 2004, Pixar gave us a gift. That gift was called, The Incredibles. And it really was. Incredible, that is. It was a family drama with a supernatural twist that left us wanting more. We wanted more in 2004. Then we wanted more in 2005. As the years went by, our hopes of getting an Incredibles sequel started to waver.

Cut to 2018. It’s fourteen years later. We’re fourteen years older— but we haven’t forgotten Bob, Helen, Violet, Dash, and Jack-Jack. We waited fourteen years for this, and it’s finally here. Keep reading to discover the secrets behind what is undoubtedly the best Pixar franchise ever made (do not @ me). Find out how Director Brad Bird found Violet’s voice, and how he lied about the origins of Edna Mode. You can’t fool us, Bird. We know who she looks like.

A Long Time Coming

It took Jason Lee, the voice actor who played Syndrome in the first Incredibles movie, four days to record all of his vocals. It took Craig T. Nelson, the actor who provided the voice of Mr. Incredible, two whole years to finish recording his.

Mr. Incredible had way more lines than Syndrome— but two years more? I guess Craig T. Nelson was busy.
