The desert sun blazes once more, and Rango is back. In Rango 2 (2026), Johnny Depp returns as the charismatic and quirky chameleon, Rango, who once again finds himself in the middle of an outlandish, high-stakes adventure in the wild West of the desert. After bringing peace to Dirt in the first film, Rango must now confront a new, mysterious threat that could turn the desert upside down. Isla Fisher returns as the resourceful and determined Beans, while Bill Nighy brings a new villain to life — a sly, dangerous character who may just be Rango’s most formidable foe yet.

The teaser opens with Rango, still the reluctant hero, receiving an urgent call for help from an old friend in Dirt. With the sun setting over a barren landscape, Rango says, “I never thought I’d be back, but this desert never lets go.” Quick flashes show jaw-dropping chase sequences, animated Western showdowns, and strange new desert creatures that threaten the peace of their small town. The signature quirky humor and colorful visuals are front and center, blending surreal moments with breathtaking animation.

The film promises hilarious misadventures, heartwarming moments, and epic, high-octane action, all while exploring Rango’s growth as a hero and his relationships with the desert’s eccentric inhabitants. A lively, folk-meets-orchestral score sets the tone for another unforgettable ride through the Wild West.
