Cars 4 could finally see the light of day in 2025

It could well be that we are finally witnessing the long-awaited release of the fourth installment of the famous animated saga “Cars”, which could see the light of day in 2025.

The long wait for Cars 4 may soon end

Nearly 20 years after the release of the first Cars film in 2006, fans of the series are impatiently awaiting the release of Cars 4. The last opus of the trilogy, Cars 3, already dates from 2017, a wait of 14 years for fans since the release of Cars 2 in 2011.

A silence disturbed by a few rumors

Since Cars 3, fans have had little news about the franchise. The animated series Cars on the Roadfeaturing Mater and his best friend Lightning McQueen traveling the country, premiered on Disney+ in 2022. Since then, the series has been mostly quiet, save for a few rumors regarding Cars 4.

A revived hope

One particularly notable rumor was heard in late 2023, during the Porsche Rennsport Reunion event. Jay Ward, creative director and consultant on the series, spoke “really fun projects” in the Pixar and Disney universe. “There’s more Cars stuff in the works, I can’t say much more at the moment,” Ward told The Late Brake Show. “Cars has a life that will continue. I’m working on some really fun projects right now that you’ll see in a few years. We need time to achieve them. »

The mystery remains

It’s now 2024, and as the “a few years” implication indicates, it’s possible we’ll start hearing about these mystery projects later this year. Could one of them be Cars 4? A recent official D23 poll in Brazil did indeed mention Cars 4. However, there has been no official announcement from Disney or Pixar on the matter.

While this is all still speculation, it’s reasonable to think that the wait for Cars 4 could end this year. However, if Cars 4 is announced this year, it is unlikely to release right away. An announcement, teaser, or even reveal doesn’t seem too far away given the information above.
