8 Recent Movie Characters That Just Disappeared

8. The Underminer - Incredibles 2

There have been a handful of franchises within the realms of Pixar that have seen something of a revival after many, many years. Toy Story 3 came out 11 years after Toy Story 2, there were 12 and 13 years between Monsters Inc. and Monsters U, and Finding Nemo and Finding Dory respectively, and joining this list is The Incredibles.

14 years after the original movie cut short the titular family's fight with the Underminer, Incredibles 2 picked up exactly where the narrative left off. Tony Rydinger was in the custody of Rick Dicker, and told of the fight that ensued.

In 2003, the Underminer only appeared at the end of The Incredibles after having nothing to do with the overall story. He was there as something of a tease for the family fighting together as a proper superhero team, and in a similar way, he was only involved in the sequel at the very start, again having nothing to do with the overall main story.

The villain got away from the Incredibles at the start of the sequel, making off with immeasurable amounts of money, but because of the collateral damage and the supers in general, no one seemed to care. He was forgotten about, and no one was particularly interested in tracking him down or bringing him to justice.
