Sequels to 'Sing' and 'The Croods' Change Release Dates
It's musical chairs with two animated sequels at Universal.
The sequel to "Sing" has been bumped back from Dec. 23, 2020 to July 2, 2021 . Taking its place is "The Croods 2."
"The Croods 2" was originally going to be released on Sept. 18 2020. The sequel has been in and out of development since DreamWorks Animation was bought by Universal in 2016.
Voice cast Nicolas Cage, Emma Stone, and Ryan Reynolds will return for the sequel. The prehistoric characters from the first film will be facing off with their biggest threat since leaving the cave: Another family. Leslie Mann and Peter Dinklage will voice the newcomers.
In "Sing 2," impresario Buster Moon ( Matthew McConaughey) and his singing animal friends leave Moon Theater for the big city. Writer/director Garth Jennings returns, along with voice stars Reese Witherspoon, Scarlett Johansson, Taron Egerton, and Tori Kelly.
