'Luca' film sequel could be in development, hints Disney Plus survey

Luca premiered on Disney+ Hotstar early this month. The coming-of-age animated fantasy film from Pixar and Walt Disney Studios is helmed by Enrico Casarosa, in his feature directorial debut. Luca reviews were generally positive, making it another hit in the Disney-Pixar venture. Now, there is news that the makers are thinking of developing a sequel to the project. 

Disney eyeing a potential Luca sequel

Mo from StreamrNews has informed The DisInsider that Disney+ has sent out a survey regarding Luca. It contains three questions that hint at a possible sequel. One of the questions also suggests that the potential second installment might look for a theatrical release. Take a look at the survey questions below. 

1. “Have you heard of the Disney+ original movie Luca?”
2. “To the best of your knowledge, how likely would each household member below be to watch another movie involving the characters and world of Luca if it became available?”
3. “If Luca had been available to see in a normal and safe theatrical environment, how interested would you have been to see Luca in the cinema?”

There is currently no official announcement about the Luca sequel. Disney sending out a survey is also not unusual, however, asking for another project in the world of Luca shows their interest. The movie has earned rave responses from the viewers as they praise its story, design, animation, and more.
