"The Incredibles" was originally developed as a traditionally-animated film for Warner Bros., but after the studio shut down its division for fully animated theatrical features, Bird took the story with him to Pixar, where he reunited with John Lasseter. "The Incredibles" is the first Pixar film to win more than one Academy Award.
