Nearly 17 years after Pixar’s opening montage for Up devastated a generation, Disney Lorcana is bringing Carl Fredricksen, Russell and Paradise Falls to the trading card game. Seven cards from Attack of the Vine, the next Lorcana set, are set for global release on July 24.

The new cards lean into Up's central themes of adventure, companionship and finding purpose after loss rather than focusing on Kevin or balloon houses. The set echoes the film’s opening scene, which compresses Carl and Ellie’s life together into a few largely wordless, heartbreaking minutes that define Carl’s character.

Card mechanics reflect those themes. Carl Fredricksen – Loving Husband reduces the cost to play an Ellie Fredricksen by two ink, while Ellie Fredricksen – Loving Wife grants one Lore when you play a location. Russell – Senior Wilderness Explorer is a five-ink card with shift 3, a Base Camp bonus that boosts characters at locations, and Good Leadership, which awards extra Lore when strong characters quest.
