Pixar has given Finding Dory a release date of November 25, 2015 – over 12 years since Finding Nemo came out. The sequel is set about a year after the original film and Nemo, Marlin and the Tank Gang will all return alongside a shoal of new characters.

Released in May 2003, Finding Nemo grossed over $878 million (£562 million) at the box office worldwide and won an Oscar for Best Animated Feature. Plans for a sequel first emerged last summer (2012).
