The story centers around Bob Parr (Mr. Incredible), who was once a celebrated superhero but now leads a mundane life in suburban retirement after the government banned all superheroes. Despite trying to live a normal life with his wife Helen (Elastigirl) and their three children – Violet (who can turn invisible and create force fields), Dash (who is super fast), and Jack-Jack (whose powers are unknown at the start) – Bob secretly longs for the action-packed days of his past.
When Bob is secretly contacted by a mysterious figure, Syndrome, who offers him the chance to come out of retirement for a dangerous mission, he takes the bait. However, it’s a trap, and Syndrome plans to use Bob’s heroic legacy to create a robot capable of defeating superheroes, which will allow him to become a “superhero” himself. As the family is pulled back into the action, they must come together to defeat Syndrome, saving not just their family but the world from destruction.
