'Wreck-It Ralph 2' Is Official, Says Composer
Recently, the composer of "Wreck-It Ralph," Henry Jackman, revealed that Disney is already working on a sequel and is currently in the preproduction stage.
“I can’t tell you more, not because I’m being coy, but I believe that it is officially on the cards," Jackman said. Although he didn't reveal much about the sequel, he stated that he really enjoyed the film and described "Wreck-It Ralph" as being "fantastically imaginative and creative". Some reacted to the news enthusasitically while some were skeptical whether a sequel would work for the film.
This was not the first time that a sequel is being speculate. In an interview in 2012, director Rich Moore did mention he was in talks with Disney and that the cast and crew were open to a sequel which may include Mario.
The film began with a $49 million box office opening weekend, making it the largest opening for Disney before "Frozen". It was favorably received by critics and had always attracted talks of a sequel. Although there have not been any confirmation from Disney yet regarding the sequel but fans will at least be glad to know a sequel may be on its way.
Other than a possible "Wreck-It Ralph 2", Disney will be releasing "Big Hero 6" based on the Marvel superhero team of the same name this year, and "Zootopia" in 2016 about a fox trying to make it big in the world.
