The Sausage Party universe is expanding. Prime Video announced today that it has picked up a new Sausage Party animated series based on the film, with the original cast returning.
The TV series is called Sausage Party: Foodtopia, and will premiere on Prime Video in 2024. The cast for the sequel includes the voices of Seth Rogen, Kristen Wiig, Michael Cera, David Krumholtz, and Edward Norton. The TV show’s new cast includes Will Forte, Sam Richardson, Natasha Rothwell and Yassir Lester. The series is currently in production and will have eight episodes in its first season, the show’s poster suggests.
Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, who co-wrote the original film, said in a statement that 2016’s Sausage Party represented the pinnacle of what could be achieved in film, so they turned their attention to TV. .
They said: “Now that that series is completely dead and TV is the king of entertainment forever, we have decided to continue the epic adventures of the culinary team in the legendary TV blockbuster. Sausage Party: Foodtopia,” they said. “It’s got all the heart, twice the pun, and three times the sex of the food on the food. In other words, it’s exactly what the world needs right now.”
Prime Video didn’t share any details about the story, saying with a wink that plot details “are being kept firmly under the hood”.
Ariel Shaffir and Kyle Hunter, who co-wrote the 2016 film with Rogen and Goldberg, are executive producers and presenters for Foodtopia. Sausage Party co-director Conrad Vernon will also return as a supervisor.
Sausage Party tells the story of the grocery store food store discovering the horrors of what happens at home. The film grossed over $140 million at the box office against a budget of $19 million, making it one of the most commercially successful R-rated animated films in history.
