We’re excited to be going to the premiere of Cars 2 at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood. They have a HUGE event planned and are transforming Hollywood Boulevard into a World Grand Prix with life-size remote-controlled cars… Even the Lightyear Blimp will be flying overhead.
Don’t worry MMTVN fans… we have Kristyn Burtt and JD Ep going out to cover this event in Mingle Media TV style – we’ll have photos and video interviews and give you the scoop from the event this Saturday.
There will be some amazing celebrities as well on the red carpet and the lineup expected include Owen Wilson, Larry the Cable Guy, Emily Mortimer, Eddie Izzard, Joe Mantegna, Tho-mas Kretschmann, Peter Jacobson, Bonnie Hunt, Michel Michelis, Lloyd Sherr, Jenifer Lewis, Sig Hansen, Cheech Marin, Paul Dooley, Edie McClurg, John Ratzenberger. Not to forget the Director John Lasseter, co-director Brad Lewis, producer Denise Ream, and composer Michael Giacchino, without them Cars 2 would not be as great as the clips we’re seeing and sharing.

The film hits the track on June 24, 2011, and will be presented in Disney Digital 3D™ and IMAX® 3D in select theaters.

He is currently the chief creative officer of Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios and principal creative advisor of Walt Disney Imagineering.
- “Cars 2” is the 12th feature-length animated film from Pixar Animation Studios (its first 11 have earned $6.5 billion at the global box office). Pixar, which has earned 29 Academy Awards® and seven Golden Globes®, celebrates its 25th Anniversary in 2011.
