The Lego Movieย became a blockbuster hit because of its humor, voice cast, its storyline, and of course, the fact that the whole filmย is made up of Lego pieces.

The Lego Movie Sequel is reported to beย set four years after the events of the first film, and will introduce Emmet’s sister. Chris Pratt has shown interest in returning as Emmet, but there is no final word on the voice cast.
However, there will be The Lego Batman Movieย and theย The Lego Ninjago Movie, which will both be released in 2017.
Rotten Tomatoesย scored The Lego Movie 96%, with the review: “Boasting beautiful animation, a charming voice cast, laugh-a-minute gags, and a surprisingly thoughtful story,ย The Lego Movie is colorful fun for all ages.”
The cast of the film was voiced byย Chris Pratt, Will Ferrell, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Nick Offerman, Alison Brie, Charlie Day,ย Liam Neeson, and Morgan Freeman.
