Coco 2: Pixar Confirms the Long-Awaited Sequel

Fans of Coco have something exciting to look forward to—Pixar has officially confirmed that a sequel is in the works! The announcement came from Disney CEO Bob Iger during a shareholder meeting on March 20, 2025. Though the movie is still in its early stages, Iger assured fans that it will be filled with heart, humor, and adventure.

The original Coco was a phenomenal success, praised for its breathtaking animation, heartfelt storytelling, and respectful homage to Mexican culture, particularly the traditions surrounding Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). The film followed Miguel, a young aspiring musician, as he journeyed into the Land of the Dead to uncover long-buried family secrets while chasing his dream.

There’s plenty of speculation about where Miguel’s journey will take him next. Some believe he might reunite with Mamá Coco in the Land of the Dead, while others think the story will introduce a new generation of his family. Whatever happens, it’s sure to be an emotional and visually stunning experience.

Expanding The Coco Universe

In addition to the film, Disney is expanding the Coco universe in a big way. A brand-new Coco-themed attraction is set to be built at Disney California Adventure, with construction beginning in 2026. This immersive experience will let fans step into the world of the film and celebrate its vibrant culture firsthand.

Since its release, Coco has left a lasting impact on audiences around the globe. Beyond winning awards, it helped bring Mexican traditions into the spotlight and told a story that resonated across generations. With Coco 2 on the way, Pixar has another opportunity to deliver a powerful, heartfelt story that celebrates family, music, and memory.
