a.k.a. “The Coolest Guy in Show Business.” Overall bonus includes an all-new mini-movie

“Incredibles

flexibility to watch the movie instantly and on a variety of devices of their
choosing, including Digital 4K Ultra HD, HD and SD and physically as a 4K Ultra
HD Combo Pack (4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and Digital Copy), a Multi-Screen Edition (Blu-ray,

photosensitive viewers, however individual sensitivities may vary.
In “Incredibles 2,” Helen (voice of Holly Hunter) is called on to lead a
campaign to bring Supers back, while Bob (voice of Craig T. Nelson) navigates
the day-to-day heroics of “normal” life at home with Violet (voice of Sarah
Vowell), Dash (voice of Huck Milner) and baby Jack-Jack—whose super powers are
about to be discovered. Their mission is derailed, however, when a new villain
emerges with a brilliant and dangerous plot that threatens everything. But the
Parrs don’t shy away from a challenge, especially with Frozone (voice of Samuel
L. Jackson) by their side. That’s what makes this family so Incredible.
