A legacy of success
The original Coco (2017) was a massive hit, winning two Academy Awards and grossed over $ 800 million worldwide.

The film’s prestigious song, Reimber Me, won the Oscar for the best original song, while Coco himself earned the award for the best animated feature.
Director Lee Anchich is ready to return, this time co-direction with Adrian Molina. The film will be produced by Mark Nielsen, which is known for his work on Toy Story 4 and Inside Out 2. The pixa has continued to expand its most successful franchise, including the upcoming sequel Toy Story 5 and The Incredibles 3.
