We had our first glimpses of the CLOUDY 2 teaser a few months ago which introduced us to a myriad of food/animal hybrids or foodnimals if you will. Now the team that brought us the first film, Phil Lord and Chris Miller, are back for this one in executive producing roles, and they have passed the meatball torch to directors, Cody Cameron and Kris Pearn. But based on the this full length trailer, Lord and Miller's fingerprints are all over this film, so the spirit of the original is still felt.
Here's a synopsis:
After the disastrous food storm in the first film caused by his machine, Flint Lockwood and his friends are forced to leave the town of Swallow Falls. Flint accepts the invitation from his idol Chester V to join The Live Corp Company, which has been tasked to clean the island, and where the best inventors in the world create technologies for the betterment of mankind and planet Earth. Upon arriving back at Swallow Falls, Flint discovers that his machine still operates and now creates mutant food beasts like living pickles, hungry tacodiles, shrimpanzees, and apple pie-thons. It is up to Flint and his friends to put a stop to the machine once and for all before this new form of foody life breaks from the island and invades the planet.
And check the trailer after the break.
So. Many. Puns. That poor tomato. And those cantaloupes are something from my nightmares; it's the teeth. I'm excited to return to this world. The first film took me completely by surprise by how smart and funny it was. Though, I'm trusting that the food puns won't be the only humor throughout the film because that will seriously wear me down.
CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS 2 will be released September 27, 2013, is directed by Cody Cameron and Kris Pearn, and stars Bill Hader, Anna Faris, James Caan, Andy Samberg, Neil Patrick Harris, and Will Forte.
