Rise of the Guardians 2: Shadow of the Moon (2026)
Chris Pine, Alec Baldwin, Jude Law
The magic of childhood faces its greatest threat yet in this sweeping, visually stunning sequel to the beloved fantasy adventure.
Years after defeating Pitch Black, the Guardians have ushered in an era of peace — brighter dreams, safer nights, and a world where wonder thrives. But far above, on the silent surface of the moon, an ancient darkness stirs.
A forgotten force, sealed away since the dawn of imagination, awakens when lunar shadows break free from their celestial prison. These living shadows creep into the dreams of children, devouring their hopes and leaving behind cold emptiness. The balance of belief begins to fracture.
Sensing the danger, the Man in the Moon summons the Guardians back into action. Jack Frost (Chris Pine), now fully confident in his role, feels a strange pull — a connection to the threat that no one else can sense. As the shadows multiply, Jack discovers why: the darkness emerging from the moon is tied directly to the origins of his power.
Meanwhile, Pitch Black (Jude Law) escapes the void that once held him captive. Far from weakened, he returns empowered by the very shadows that once betrayed him. Seeking revenge, Pitch forges a sinister alliance with the Moonborn, ancient spirits sculpted from pure lunar darkness — beings older than the Guardians themselves.
To stop Pitch and the Moonborn from plunging the world into eternal night, the Guardians must travel into uncharted realms:
– the Shadow Vale, where nightmares are born;
– the Astral Paths, twisting corridors of light and darkness;
– and the Lunar Core, the heart of the Moon’s ancient magic.
But victory will require more than courage. Jack must confront a revelation that shakes him to his core — a long-hidden truth the Man in the Moon kept secret, one that connects Jack to the Moonborn and the awakening darkness.
And in the final battle, belief alone may not be enough.
Rise of the Guardians 2: Shadow of the Moon (2026) delivers soaring fantasy, emotional depth, and breathtaking mythology — proving that even in the darkest night, the light we believe in can still rise.
