Finding Nemo 2 will welcome back Marlin, voice by Albert Brooks. The actor has agreed to return for the sequel to the beloved Pixar classic and will join Ellen DeGeneres (Dory) as confirmed returning cast members. Alexander Gould who voiced Nemo in the first film is rumored to be replaced by child actor Preston Bailey.

Andrew Stanton will helm the project which Disney is hoping will perform better than Stanton's last directorial effort, John Carter. Disney ended up taking a significant loss on that film and there were questions as to whether Disney would give Stanton another shot.

No word on what the plot will be, other than the film's characters presumably having to find Nemo again, but it won't be a while until the sequel arrives in theaters in 2016.

Which other characters from the first film would you like to see return?
