Briefly: Despite his recent career resurgence thanks to outstanding supporting turns in films like This Is 40 and Drive, Albert Brooks is apparently still well-aware of the benefits of returning for some voice work in an animated sequel. Of course, this isn’t just any animated sequel, it is Finding Nemo 2, and with Brooks’ charming and neurotic work as Nemo’s dad Marlin proving to be such an important part of the first film, it’s no shock that Deadline Hollywood reports that he is back for more.
Ellen DeGeneres is also reprising her role as the forgetful Dory, and director Andrew Stanton is also set to helm this new adventure.
Finding Nemo 2 will hit theaters in 2016.
