Warner Animation and the Lego Group have put out an outstanding list of theatrically-released movies, kicking things off in 2014 with The Lego Movie. Since then, the partnership has produced The Lego Batman Movie (2017), The Lego Ninjago Movie (2017), and most recently, 2019's The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part. Now, the Lego Group has partnered with Universal Pictures for a five-year exclusive deal.

　　While under Warner, the previous Lego movies have grossed over $1 billion collectively. Universal has already worked with the Lego Group on the television special Jurassic World: The Secret Exhibit and the 13-episode mini-series Lego Jurassic World: Legend of Isla Nublar.

　　"The Lego system in play gives people the ability to build worlds and create stories that they carry throughout every phase of their lives," said Donna Langley, chairman of Universal Filmed Entertainment Group. "To partner with such an iconic brand that remains relevant and is constantly evolving allows for creativity in storytelling. We're thrilled to start building out the next chapter of Lego movies together with Jill and the Lego team as they continue to inspire curiosity and innovation."

　　"Universal's commitment to unique storytelling from diverse voices makes the studio the perfect partner as the Lego Group enters this new phase of filmmaking,” said Jill Wilfert, head of entertainment, the Lego Group. "Donna and the entire Universal team bring a sense of wonder and imagination we share, and we can't wait to execute on our shared vision."

　　In late 2018, Lego Batman Movie writer Chris McKay revealed that he was working on a sequel to the 2017 film, but now, with Lego movies falling under the Universal Pictures banner, its future is unknown. However, Universal and Lego have a wealth of popular franchises they can pull from for future films like Fast & the Furious, Jurassic World, Despicable Me, and Blumhouse--if they want to get scary with it.
