While the original released back in 2013, a sequel to Dreamwork's The Croods has been in development for just as long. Since animated films take time and it's even harder when names like Emma Stone, Nicolas Cage, and Ryan Reynolds are attached, it makes sense the length of time in which the film's development ended up taking. Even still, seven years is a very long wait.
However, it looks like the wait is finally over! Last week a brand new poster for its sequel, The Croods: A New Age, released and showed the release date being moved up from Christmas to Thanksgiving of this year! With that, it was only a matter of time before a trailer would come out, and sure enough, that expectation became a reality.
The new 3-minute trailer sees the prehistoric family, the Croods, meeting a brand new family called the Bettermans. Together the families learn to coexist and adapt to each other's customs, but that's a lot easier said than done.
Thankfully, it appears that the wait has paid off in the best way, and fans can't be happier for it! We would love to hear your thoughts on the new trailer in the comments below!
The Croods have survived their fair share of dangers and disasters, from fanged prehistoric beasts to surviving the end of the world, but now they will face their biggest challenge of all: another family
The Croods need a new place to live. So, the first prehistoric family sets off into the world in search of a safer place to call home. When they discover an idyllic walled-in paradise that meets all their needs, they think their problems are solved … except for one thing. Another family already lives there: the Bettermans.
The Bettermans (emphasis on the “better”)—with their elaborate tree house, amazing inventions and irrigated acres of fresh produce—are a couple of steps above the Croods on the evolutionary ladder. When they take the Croods in as the world’s first houseguests, it isn’t long before tensions escalate between the cave family and the modern family.
Just when all seems lost, a new threat will propel both families on an epic adventure outside the safety of the wall, one that will force them to embrace their differences, draw strength from each other and forge a future together.
The Croods 2: A New Age is coming to theaters on November 25th!
