Disney issues seizure warning for ‘Incredibles 2’

(CNN) — Pixar’s “Incredibles 2” just earned $180 million at the box office and that’s the biggest opening ever for an animated film.

At the same time, Disney is issuing an unprecedented warning to viewers of the new film.

It involves a scene with a villain named “Screen-Slaver” that features a series of bright flashing lights.

The warning comes after some people posted concerns on social media that moviegoers with a type of epilepsy could be at risk.

The Epilepsy Foundation says for about 3 percent of patients, in some situations flashing lights can trigger a seizure.

It’s called “Photosensitive Epilepsy” and is more common in kids and teens.
