''Cars 3'' is an upcoming 2017 Creator/{{Pixar}} movie that will serve as the third entry in the ''Franchise/{{Cars}}'' franchise. The movie will focus on Lightning [=McQueen=] (Owen Wilson) dealing with a new generation of Piston Cup Racing and seeking the help of a young racing technician, Cruz Ramirez, as she hopes to get back into the game. As opposed to ''WesternAnimation/{{Cars 2}}'', this installment of the franchise will make a return to Radiator Springs, and is confirmed to feature the return of Creator/LarryTheCableGuy, Bonnie Hunt, and Cheech Marin as Mater, Sally, and Ramone respectively, as well as new characters Cruz Ramirez and Jackson Storm without confirmed voice actors.

* NeverTrustATrailer: Many watching the trailer have been lead to believe that Lightning dies in the race and the rest of the movie is about the other characters. He doesn't, because he survives. The entire premise of the movie is how the accident affects him as an individual and how he overcomes adversity to get back in the game.

* DarkerAndEdgier: If the 50 second long teaser trailer is anything to go by, Creator/{{Pixar}} appears to be taking a step back into a more serious direction after ''WesternAnimation/{{Cars 2}}'' was their first critical failure.
