Watch: ‘Cars 3’ Sneak Peek Reveals More Plot Details
Cars 3 is under a significant amount of pressure – not unlike the pressure that Lightning McQueen has to manage in the third entry of the franchise. The story of the film revolves around McQueen coming to terms with being the “old guy on the block,” with newer and flashier cars driving up the circuit. The film is back for a second sequel, which means the creative team has an even tougher challenge in giving audiences a Cars story we haven’t seen before.

Pixar To Preview ‘Cars 3’ At Detroit Auto Show
When it comes to marketing choices, there are some that make too much sense to avoid. To market Finding Dory, Disney/Pixar held special events at water-themed areas (aka aquariums); for the world premiere of Tomorrowland, Disney pulled out all the stops and held an after-party at Disneyland’s (you guessed it) Tomorrowland. When you think of the Cars franchise, there are plenty of ways for Disney and Pixar to create buzz, but auto shows are an obvious choice. Cars 3 is doing just that, as the film will be a presence at a Detroit auto show. Find more details after the break. [Read more…]
‘Cars 3’ Teaser Was The Most Watched Trailer Last Week
The internet and best SMM panel have completely transformed the marketing approach that movie studios (and anyone else, for that matter) take in order to create buzz for their products. Think back to the 90s and how you used to learn of a film. You may have fond memories of blurry trailers with inconsistent audio. Now that audio and video reach audiences in pristine form, platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, Snapchat, and Twitter have become some of the go-to places to market films. Part of the reasoning for that is the surge in smartphone users in the last 10 years. Last week, a new teaser trailer for Cars 3 was released and judging by the number of views it garnered, there were plenty of viewers interested in seeing what another addition to the Cars franchise would look like.

Up to this point, we have seen sequels (and a prequel) for the Toy Story, Cars, and Monsters, Inc. franchises, but there has been one franchise, above all others, that has had a loud group of fans begging for a follow up – Brad Bird’s The Incredibles. Today, Disney announced two Pixar sequels that are in development, The Incredibles 2 and Cars 3.
Pixar Developing ‘Cars 3’?
There was only a matter of time before speculation of a third Cars film started. While the first two Cars films are easily the most divisive films in the Pixar catalog, they have their dedicated fans. The franchise is also a beast when it comes to merchandise, with Cars toys and other tie-ins bringing in billions. After the release of Cars 2, new shorts have steadily been released, but there has been no news on a continuation of the films’ story of Lightning McQueen, Mater, and the town of Radiator Springs.
