Cars 3 is an upcoming American 3D computer-animated sports comedy-drama film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It is the third installment in the Cars franchise and is being directed by Brian Fee, a storyboard artist on Cars (2006) and Cars 2 (2011).[2]

It will follow Lightning McQueen as a new generation of sleek race cars arrive and he is forced to retire from racing after a horrible crash. With help from race technician Cruz Ramirez, he begins training to get back in the game. The film is scheduled to be released on June 16, 2017.[3]

Production

On August 17, 2013, Michael Wallis (voice of Sheriff in the films) told radio listeners that Cars 3 would go back to Route 66, and will also include Route 99.[9]

At the Disney stockholder meeting on March 18, 2014, Disney CEO Bob Iger announced that Pixar had begun pre-production on Cars 3.[10] In October 2014, Pixar's chief creative officer John Lasseter revealed at the Tokyo International Film Festival that the film will feature a tribute to Hayao Miyazaki's film The Castle of Cagliostro, in a form of an old Citroën 2CV.[11] Production began in summer 2014. On October 8, 2015, the film's release date was announced to be June 16, 2017.[3]

On November 21, 2016, a teaser trailer was released on YouTube.[12] Eight days later, on November 29, Disney released two posters of the film, one for the domestic release and one for the international.[13]

On January 5, 2017, it was announced that Armie Hammer would play Jackson Storm, and Cristela Alonzo would play Cruz Ramirez.[2] On January 9, 2017, an extended sneak peek was released during the 2017 College Football Playoff National Championship.[14] On February 26, 2017, Disney released the "Next Generation" trailer during the Daytona 500.

Release

Cars 3 is scheduled for theatrical release on June 16, 2017, in the United States,[3] alongside with Pixar's latest short, Lou, which will show before the film.

Video game

A tie-in video game has been announced to accompany the film's release. It will be developed by Avalanche Software, which was shut down by Disney in 2016, but was acquired and revived by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. As Disney no longer develops and publishes video games after the non-Japanese release of Disney Infinity 3.0, Warner Bros. will publish the tie-in game.[15]
