More details on the plot of Cars 2 were revealed at the London-based Disney Animation Showcase, Empire reports.
"Mater, who we know from the series of cartoon shorts Mater’s Tall Tales (more on that in our blog in a minute) is prone to exaggeration, gets involved in a "Hitchcockian" case of mistaken identity, saves the life of a British secret agent called Finn McMissile (who looks a heck of a lot like an Aston Martin) and becomes embroiled in a huge spy thriller. Only no-one believes him."
Speaking of Cars Toons, two new Mater’s Tall Tales have been announced. The first, Unidentified Flying Mater, has the trusty tow-truck befriend a UFO and help it escape from Parking Area 51. The next, Heavy Metal Mater, finds our hero becoming a famous rockstar!
I won’t spoil much more, but you can read the rest of the what sounds to be like a very exciting plot line with more appeal to an international audience than Cars over at Empire.
All right, NOW I want to see it. You had me at “Hitchcockian”.
I can’t wait. This is gonna be great…

I think I posted a thread on this before this story even got up. XD
I know I can’t wait for this!!!!! 😀 Will it be better than the first? I certainly hope so!!!
Pixar has already established a relationship with Timothy Dalton, casting him as Mr. Pricklepants in Toy Story 3; I wouldn’t be surprised if he also ended up being the Bond car in Cars 2
The coproducer of Ratatouille, Brsd Lewis, is co-directing Cars2. Wow. That’s weird.
Sounds weird as hell but that’s certainly better than the rumored “Lightning McQueen does Europe” rumor from before.
We’ll see.
