Few animated franchises have endured as long as Ice Age without ever crossing over into live-action. The first Ice Age movie released all the way back in 2002, and while it may not have aged as well as you remember, it’s still widely considered one of the best animated movies ever made. It was four years later that stars such as Ray Romano and John Leguizamo returned for the 2006 sequel, Ice Age: The Meltdown, which grossed over $660 million at the box office, proving worthy of its $80 million budget. Three more films were released theatrically in 2009, 2012, and 2016, and while most fans thought that the time of Ice Age was finished, Disney has been working on another installment for years now, Ice Age: Boiling Point, which is coming to theaters around the world on February 5, 2027.
This afternoon, Disney previewed the first official teaser trailer for Ice Age: Boiling Point, which can be found below. The first full-length trailer for the film will likely come closer to the end of 2026, when the release date is more imminent. The new teaser shows Manny (voiced by Ray Romano), Diego (voiced by Denis Leary), Sid (voiced by John Leguizamo), Buck (voiced by Simon Pegg) and Ellie (voiced by Queen Latifah), along with acorn-obsessed Scrat, Crash, Eddie and Baby Scrat, they blast out of a volcano and straight into a dinosaur-and-lava-filled madcap adventure to visit never-before-seen corners of the treacherous Lost World. More details about the Ice Age: Boiling Point plot will certainly be made available once it’s a little closer to release.
Collider Exclusive · Universe Personality Quiz Which Iconic Universe Do You Belong in the Most? Star Wars · Lord of the Rings · Harry Potter · Game of Thrones · Star Trek
Five legendary universes. Five completely different visions of what the world could be — or already was. One of them is the world your instincts, your values, and your particular way of existing were built for. Eight questions will tell you which one.
Star Wars
Lord of the Rings
Harry Potter
Game of Thrones
Star Trek
01
What gives your life its deepest sense of meaning? Every universe is built around a different answer to this question.
02
Which kind of world do you most want to inhabit? The environment shapes who you become. Choose carefully.
03
How do you prefer your conflicts resolved? The shape of a world’s conflicts tells you everything about its soul.
04
Who do you want beside you when things get difficult? Your ideal companions reveal the world you were made for.
05
What is your relationship with power? How you seek, wield, or resist power is the map of who you are.
06
How does your universe treat good and evil? A world’s moral architecture tells you more about it than any map.
07
What role would you naturally fall into? Every universe has archetypes. Which one fits you without trying?
08
What do you ultimately believe about the future? The answer to this is the clearest window into which universe already lives inside you.
Your Universe Has Been Chosen You Belong In…
Your answers point to the iconic universe your values, your instincts, and your particular way of seeing the world were built for. This is where you would find your people — and your purpose.
A Galaxy Far, Far Away
Star Wars
You believe in the cause — in the idea that freedom is worth fighting for even when the odds are impossible and the empire is vast.
You are drawn to the moral clarity of a universe where hope itself is a form of resistance.
You’d find your people in the Rebellion — a ragtag coalition of true believers held together by conviction more than resources.
Star Wars is fundamentally a story about ordinary people choosing to matter in an extraordinary conflict — and that is exactly your kind of story.
The Force may or may not be with you. But the will to use it for something larger than yourself certainly is.
Middle-earth
Lord of the Rings
You understand, in the deepest part of yourself, that the journey matters as much as the destination — and that the world’s beauty is worth protecting even at great cost.
Middle-earth is a world of ancient wonder, deep friendship, and a darkness that only retreats when enough small acts of courage accumulate.
You would thrive here because you value the fellowship more than the glory — the road more than the arrival.
Tolkien’s universe rewards patience, loyalty, and the willingness to carry something heavy across a very long distance.
Those are not burdens to you. They are simply how you move through the world.
The Wizarding World
Harry Potter
You believe that love, loyalty, and doing what’s right are not naive sentiments — they are the most powerful forces in any world, magical or otherwise.
The Wizarding World is a place of wonder hidden in plain sight, where learning is transformative and the bonds you form at school follow you into every battle.
You would flourish here because you take both the magic and the friendships seriously — and you understand that one without the other is incomplete.
Harry Potter’s universe ultimately rewards those who choose to stand for something even when standing is terrifying.
That choice — made quietly, without guarantee — is something you understand completely.
Westeros · The Known World
Game of Thrones
You see the world clearly — its power structures, its hypocrisies, its brutal arithmetic — and you are not paralysed by that clarity. You use it.
Westeros is a world that rewards intelligence, adaptability, and the willingness to understand that every alliance is also a negotiation.
You would survive here — possibly thrive here — because you don’t confuse the world as it is with the world as you’d like it to be.
Game of Thrones is a story about what happens when the idealists and the realists collide. You are sharp enough to know which one lasts longer.
Winter always comes. You are already prepared.
The United Federation of Planets
Star Trek
You believe the future is worth building — that curiosity, cooperation, and the expansion of understanding are not just ideals but the most practical path forward for any civilisation.
Star Trek is a universe where the questions matter as much as the answers, and where encountering something utterly alien is cause for wonder rather than fear.
You would belong here because you are fundamentally optimistic about what intelligence and decency can achieve — while being honest about how hard that achievement is.
The Federation is the universe’s most ambitious thought experiment: what if we actually got better?
You don’t just hope that’s possible. You think it’s the only thing worth working toward.
What Is The Highest-Grossing ‘Ice Age’ Movie?
The highest-grossing Ice Age movie came in 2009 with the premiere of Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, which earned $886 million at the global box office. It just narrowly maintained its spot when its 2012 sequel, Continental Drift, debuted, which grossed $879 million. The original Ice Age movie that was released in 2002 grossed more than the 2016 sequel, Ice Age: Collision Course, which could signal that interest in the franchise is on the decline. At this point, it’s too early to tell if it’s more likely for Ice Age: Boiling Point to reach $1 million, or for it to bomb at the box office. Early reviews and more marketing material will likely make its path more clear.
Check out the new trailer for Ice Age: Boiling Point and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of the film.
