The sequel The Boss Baby, which debuted in 2017. The movie once again centers on the Templeton brothers — but with a twist.
Boss Baby 2 is set several decades after the original Boss Baby (and its spin-off animated Netflix series). Tim Templeton is now a stay-at-home father raising two daughters, while his former "boss baby" brother Ted has grown into a highly successful businessman. The two have completely forgotten about their adventures with Baby Corp; however, when a new emergency threatens the organization, Ted and Tim are recruited by Tina — Tim's infant daughter and Baby Corp agent — to go undercover for a crucially important mission.
Most of the original cast from Boss Baby reprises their roles as animated characters in the sequel, with one notable exception. James Marsden takes over a role from Tobey Maguire, while a rising child star takes over the role of Tim's daughter. There are a number of notable celebrity voices added to the mix, thanks to the addition of a new antagonist and other ing characters. The following are all the major roles in Boss Baby 2, as well as where viewers might recognize the voices from.
Alec Baldwin as Ted Templeton Jr.
Alec Baldwin returns to voice Theodore Lindsey "Ted" Templeton Jr. in Boss Baby 2. While in the previous movie (and the Netflix series Back to Business), Ted was a super-star at Baby Corp, in Family Business he is an adult and very successful, but at the cost of having alienated and isolated himself from others. Baldwin has enjoyed a long career in both television and feature film (and stage), but is most recognized for roles like Jack Donaghy in SNL.
James Marsden as Tim Templeton
Ted's older brother Timothy Leslie "Tim" Templeton also returns in The Boss Baby: Family Business, but is now voiced by James Marsden. In the previous film, young Tim was voiced by Miles Bakshi, while Tobey Maguire provided the voice of the adult version (who was the film's narrator). Marsden is perhaps best known for playing Scott Summers, aka Cyclops, in Fox's Sonic the Hedgehog.
Amy Sedaris as Tina Templeton
One of the strongest additions to Family Business is the hilarious Amy Sedaris, who plays Tina Templeton, Tim's infant daughter — and the latest generation of a "boss baby" for Baby Corp. Sedaris is a comedian; her breakout role was as Jerri Blank in the short-lived cult-favorite Strangers With Candy. Sedaris also had memorable roles as Mimi Kanasis in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and the spunky mechanic Peli Motto in The Mandalorian. Her distinct voice may also be familiar to BoJack Horseman fans since she played Princess Carolyn for all six seasons.
Ariana Greenblatt as Tabitha Templeton
Tim's eldest daughter Tabitha Templeton is voiced by Ariana Greenblatt (replacing Nina Zoe Bakshi from in the first movie). Tabitha is a gifted student, but her dedication to her studies at The Acorn Center for Advanced Childhood is causing her and Tim to drift apart. Greenblatt is a rising child star whose breakout role was the TV series Stuck in the Middle. She's appeared in several major films, including playing young Gamora in Avengers: Infinity War, Julia in The One and Only Ivan, and Young Nina in In The Heights. Greenblatt also played Minnow in Love and Monsters.
Jeff Goldblum as Dr. Armstrong
