"Honnnney! Where's my supersuit?" Frozone screams (Samuel L Jackson's voice) at his wife from the other side of a lovely high rise apartment in 2004's The Incredibles. The line quickly became one of many well-known, GIF-ed out quotes from the Pixar film. So when the sequel arrived in theaters more than a decade later in June 2018, writer-director Brad Bird knew there just had to be more of Frozone's wife, Honey.
Well, that was the plan. Until the scene had to be cut to keep the pace moving. Eventually, Bird and the team decided never seeing Honey was half the fun. "We stayed away from the big action scene too long and that we were killing the momentum we were gaining by having the big action scene," Bird explained in i09's exclusive debut of the cut scene, which you can watch below.
Is Honey just how you pictured her? Let us know in the comments. Incredibles 2 arrives in Digital HD Oct. 23 and Blu-ray Nov. 6. Check out the full list of features:
