\u2018Incredibles 2\u2019: How Pixar Story Artist Ted Mathot Brought the \u2018Auntie Edna\u2019 Mini-Movie To Life<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone who\u2019s seen Jack-Jack Parr take on a racoon knows that the innocent looking tyke is not one to be trifled with. But even Jack-Jack meets his match when the indomitable Edna E. Mode steps in…as babysitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Directed by Ted Mathot and produced by Marc Sondheimer, Auntie Edna<\/em> is a new \u201cmini-movie\u201d created as part of the home entertainment release of Pixar\u2019s Incredibles 2<\/em>, available now on Digital and in stores on November 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During Incredibles 2<\/em>, superhero costume designer Edna volunteers to babysit the youngest Parr after learning he\u2019s exhibiting a wide range of super powers of his own. The spirited fashionista — modeled on the likes of fashion luminaries Anna Wintour and Rei Kawakubo — then returns Jack-Jack to the rest of his family with a super suit built to accommodate the infant\u2019s wide range of superhuman abilities. But one big question remained: what happened that night at Auntie Edna\u2019s house?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Auntie Edna<\/em> is the second short film to reveal an untold sequence revolving around the infant superhero: the original 2004 film had the short Jack-Jack Attack<\/em> included on its respective home video release showing a cut sequence as teenager Kari had to suddenly deal with Jack-Jack\u2019s burgeoning super powers while the rest of the family fought Syndrome in the film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mathot, who also served as story supervisor on Incredibles 2<\/em>, first began working at Pixar as a story artist in 1999, and has since worked in a similar capacity on The Incredibles<\/em>, Cars<\/em>, Ratatouille<\/em>, Presto<\/em> and WALL\u2022E<\/em>. He received an Annie Award in 2008 for his storyboard work on Ratatouille<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
