New "The Lego Movie 2" 2018 reports claim that Phil Lord and Chris Miller will be coming back to write the sequel.

According to Cinema Blend, " the first movie's directors, Lord and Miller, will not be coming back to direct. Instead, they've hired animation co-director Chris McKay to helm the sequel.

Lord and Miller is also known for directing comedy gold "22 Jump Street." And while the pair committed to bring back the awesomeness to "The Lego Movie 2" in 2018, they also have tons of projects under their wing. As Deadline put it:

"The duo is also working under their development deal at 20th Century Fox Television, and are exec producers on the Will Forte comedy series Last Man on Earth, which will premiere on Fox. They have two other pilots: an untitled comedy with The Interviewscreenwriter Dan Sterling at CBS and a remake of the 1981 sci-fi dramedy Greatest American Hero at Fox."

Meanwhile, news of potential cast members are already sparking fans' interest. One of the most talked about cast addition is Spider-Man's cameo appearance along with other Marvel superheroes including the "Avengers" and "X-Men." Fans await official news regarding the said rumor.

Yahoo reported, "The Lego Movie had a supporting cast of DC superheroes like Batman and Wonder Woman, but for the sequel, [creators] Miller and Lord would love to get Marvel heroes on board."

"The Lego Movie 2" was originally slated for a 2017 release. But new reports suggest that the second movie will be pushed back to a later date because of another awesome Lego Movie.

Hero Complex reported that the "Lego Batman Movie" will take the original 2017 launch of "The Lego Movie 2." That means, the sequel (or prequel, more details later) will be given a 2018 premiere.
