❄️ Ice Age 6 (2026): The Herd Returns for a New Adventure

The beloved prehistoric franchise is back! Ice Age 6, scheduled for release in 2026, promises to bring audiences another epic chapter filled with comedy, heart, and stunning animation. Produced by 20th Century Studios and Walt Disney Animation, the film continues the legacy of one of the most successful animated sagas of all time.

A Return to the Frozen Fun

After the events of Ice Age: Collision Course (2016), fans were unsure if the herd’s adventures had come to an end. Now, a decade later, the iconic characters — Manny, Sid, Diego, and Scrat — are set to return, with fresh faces joining the journey. The new installment will explore themes of family, change, and survival in a world that continues to evolve.

What to Expect in Ice Age 6

While the studio has kept most plot details under wraps, early reports suggest that the herd may encounter new lands shaped by climate shifts, including vast oceans, volcanic terrain, and hidden prehistoric civilizations. Along the way, they’ll face new rivals and allies, all while struggling to stay together as a family.

Expect plenty of laughs from Sid the sloth, heartfelt moments from Manny and his family, and heroic action from Diego. And of course, Scrat’s never-ending quest for his acorn is rumored to return, possibly with a twist fans have been waiting for.

The Legacy of Ice Age

Since the first Ice Age film premiered in 2002, the franchise has grossed over $6 billion worldwide across films, shorts, and merchandise. Its mix of slapstick humor, emotional storytelling, and unforgettable characters has cemented its place in animation history.
