‘Coco 2’ reportedly dropping in 2029, fans joke Pixar is making it "for the next gen"

Get ready to set the alarm because Coco 2 is officially on its way! In a recent Instagram post, Disney and Pixar shared that the movie is officially in the works.

Moreover, according to reports, it will be released in 2029, twelve years after the first movie won our hearts with music, family, and a gloriously animated trip to the Land of the Dead.

With Coco 2's reported release date of 2029, supporters will have ample time to rewatch the original, practice those "Remember Me" a cappella harmonies, and look forward to another unforgettable journey with Miguel and his pals. It's been a while coming, but it seems that Pixar is gearing up for something truly special.

Regarding the Coco 2 storyline, news remains under wraps tighter than a Day of the Dead altar, and Pixar isn't sharing any Marigold petals yet. As soon as the news came out, someone took to his X account and commented:

"for the next gen"

By the time the movie comes out, some of the original fans will be introducing it to their own little guitar-picking protégés. The release date may seem far off, but hey! Good things (and sequels) come to those who wait - particularly when they're created for the next generation of Pixar fans!

The moment that the release date announcements dropped online, fans did not remain calm - and rightly so, really, would Miguel? Social media erupted quicker than a Día de los Muertos shrine, with responses varying from happy serenades to tearful flashbacks of "Remember Me" trauma.

Before we all reach for our tissues and guitars in unison, let's look at some of the most hilarious, dramatic, and flat-out legendary fan reactions to the movie being reportedly released in 2029.

Netizens have reacted as Coco 2 is reportedly dropping in 2029

The movie release year of 2029 has everyone cracking jokes that Pixar's really going for the "remember me eventually" feel. With this pace, the sequel will likely include a free senior discount and a marigold on the house with every ticket purchase:

"Why do they even announce it now if it’s gonna be in 4 years?," a user @Logan_Maraj asked.

"2029???? hope i won’t me this old," another user @TeaTimeMeta hilariously commented with a GIF:

"2029? GTA 6 before Coco 2 is crazy," a netizen @RyanDior24 sarcastically expressed.

With the movie release timeline reportedly scheduled for 2029, others jumped in on the comments with no background and lots of pandemonium - just low-key commenting, contributing to the din, and making jokes strictly for the game of it:

"It's just fun," a user @marvinwontmiss hilariously commented.

"At this point, I’ll need a time machine," a netizen @AvaTlovenotes sarcastically commented.

"They got me waiting for Coco 2 like the World Cup," a user @friezsnake hilariously commented.

Amid all the teasing regarding the release date of the movie, some took time out from the mayhem to really compliment Pixar. Amidst the jokes and sentimental status messages, it's apparent that the movie has already struck us right in the feels, and it's not even released yet:

"2029 is a long wait, but knowing Pixar, it’ll be worth every second. Will they still capture the same heart and magic?," a user @SheKnowsScience commented.

"The wait is over, Coco 2 arrives in 2029," a netizen @A1fun_ wrote.

Whether you're commenting for laughs, crying crocodile tears, or simply commenting to please the algorithm, one thing's for sure- the release date of the Coco 2 has us in our feels (and memes). 2029 might feel like a lifetime down the road, but hey, time flies fast when you're counting down the years, right? Meanwhile, we patiently wait dramatically amidst marigolds, guitars, and Wi-Fi.
