Just wait until the poor kid hears the plot of the sequel.New York, NY, and Los Angeles, CA- May 24, 2021-Universal Filmed Entertainment Group (UFEG) and Peacock today announced DreamWorks Animation’s The Boss Baby: Family Business, the sequel to the Oscar ®-nominated blockbuster comedy that earned more than $500 million worldwide, will debut as Peacock’s summer movie event for no additional charge to Peacock Premium customers in the U.S. “Well, it didn’t really make a lot of sense,” comes the sensible response. “It was a good story, wasn’t it?” he offers. In an early scene, Ted attempts to recount the events of the first film to daughter Tabitha. Smaller viewers may well thrill to the relentlessness. We’ll say one thing for Boss Baby 2: its untidy, unpredictable, and unmannerly form does, indeed, evoke the exhausting, mucky business of baby tending, albeit with nothing like the familial rewards.

Whatever its faults, 2017’s The Boss Baby – as adapted from Marla Frazee’s best-selling picture book – had a concept. Talk about throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
