It's been more than seven and a half years since DreamWorks Animation released The Croods, the caveman family adventure comedy that earned nearly $600 million worldwide and an Oscar nomination. A sequel has been in development, on and off, ever since. Now, finally, The Croods: A New Age is here and will be opening in theaters this Wednesday November 25th. Director Joel Crawford (of the 2017 special Trolls Holiday) talks story, casting, release strategy and more.
