Disney-Pixar unveiled full cast and character details Monday for the highly anticipated sequel “Incredibles 2,” according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Craig T. Nelson (Mr. Incredible), Holly Hunter (Elastigirl) and Samuel L. Jackson (Frozone) return and welcome newcomers Jonathan Banks and former “One Tree Hill” star Sophia Bush. Banks will reportedly play a government leader who helps super heroes keep their identities hidden as the head of the Super Relocation Program. Bush will play an eager fan of Elastigirl named Voyd who has the ability to create voids “allowing objects to appear and disappear.”

The entertainment company also shared a bit of new information about what fans can expect from other new characters of the popular franchise, including Bob Odenkirk and Catherine Keener, who play a savvy brother and sister duo that run a telecommunications company. The outlet speculates the two could be “supervillian material.”

“It’s fundamentally a story about family,” director Brad Bird said last year. “The technology has gotten so much better; we can get them close to what we wanted to do in the [original]. It’s like driving a better car.”

“Bob Parr (Mr. Incredible) is left to care for Jack-Jack while Helen (Elastigirl) is out saving the world,” a description of the film on IMDb read.

A teaser trailer released in November gives us a hint it’s going to be fun.

“Incredibles 2” hits theaters June 15.
