Director Brad Bird has once again been asked about the chances of a sequel to the Pixar movie but says the huge amount of superheroes dominating multiplexes may mean we'll be waiting a long time.

"It’s all of the above," Brad Bird told MTV News when asked whether he has got a script, page or even piece of concept art for a sequel to Pixar's 2004 movie. "I haven’t gotten it all figured out yet. I have a lot of ideas I had originally intended to be in the first movie, but you have to start throwing things out of the balloon to get it up in the air."

I love those characters, and if I could make one that was to ‘Incredibles’ what the ‘Toy Story’ sequels were to ‘Toy Story,’ I’d do it," he said, although he added that the large number of superhero movies currently being released may mean they'll wait a while just yet. It doesn’t encourage, as if what the world needs is another superhero sequel. That would never be the reason to do it anyways -- it would be the story."

However, he's not forgotten just how important The Incredibles has been, ultimately offering him the chance to helm Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol. "One of the interesting reactions to ‘Incredibles’ was that even though it was a superhero film, people got a sort of spy vibe from it. So people could tell that I liked spy films, and this was a great chance to do one."
