Wedge considering Robots 2

The success of FOX’s "Robots" has Rupert and the lads thinking sequel.

Director Chris Wedge, currently co-producing a sequel to "Ice Age", tells the Sydney Morning Herald that it’s likely Rodney’s going to get another outing.

The film, should it go ahead, would see Ewan McGregor back behind the mic to play the loveable old-style droid.

He is also working on two more films – one described as being "a smaller feeling movie but fun in its own right" and the other described as more of an "action feel" film.

Wedge spent some time Down Under promoting "Robots" pre-theatrical, and whilst there came up with an idea for an Aussie family film. "We have been thinking about it, seriously," the director said. "Cane toads is what we were looking at."
