Two More ‘Lego’ Movies Get Release Dates

That’s in addition to Ninjago, already dated for 2016, and The Lego Movie 2, which is set for 2017. Hit the jump for more details.
The Lego Movie 2 will follow May 26, 2017, meaning the studio will be putting out a new Lego film each Memorial Day for three consecutive years. That is, assuming Warner Bros. actually sticks to schedule. A lot could change in the next four or five years.
But it’s no wonder Warner Bros. is so eager to keep the Lego Movie series going. The first one, which landed this past February, cost about $60 million and grossed $468 million worldwide. It’s also received some of the best reviews of any movie this year.
Charlie Bean (Tron: Uprising) is set to helm the Lego Movie spinoff Ninjago, while Chris McKay will direct the Lego Movie sequel. Both will be produced by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who directed the original.
