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.
