When Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen announced a highly raunchy animated film about talking food, Sausage Party, the audience didn’t know they would be treated with its sequel series. After a highly successful first season, many are clamoring for more. Surprisingly, the team is ready to bring Sausage Party: Foodtopia Season 2. That’s right!
The creative team has already shared their ideas for the next run. Guess what? The showrunners have already shared the much-needed update about Season 2. So, without further ado, let’s see what’s coming our way.
The adult animated series is a sequel to the 2016 film Sausage Party. Foodtopia is set after the events of the film. Frank and his friends learned about the world outside the shopping mall and how humans treated the food. This led to a battle between food and humans. After the massive dispute, the food defeated humans and established a haven called “Foodtopia.” However, their freedom didn’t last long, forcing them to deal with other challenges to survive.
Sausage Party: Foodtopia Season 2 Is Renewed!
After a successful talking food movie, Sausage Party, Seth Rogen, Michael Cera, and Kristen Wiig returned with another masterpiece spin-off series, Sausage Party: Foodtopia. While the series focused on the aftermath of the events of the film, the adult animated series took the world by storm. It was undoubtedly the most epic adult animated series, receiving an almost positive reception from the audience and critics.
While many praised its humor and voice acting, others questioned its writing and political themes. That’s why the series received an average response from the audience. It gained only 5.7 out of 10 on IMDb and 48% on Rotten Tomatoes. Despite the series being criticized for its narration, the show is all set to entertain its audience again.
Just a month after the first season debuted on Prime Video, the streaming platform announced the series for the next run. Well, it performed extremely well on the platform, and there is no denying that. During San Diego Comic-Con 2024, a message from the series producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg announced Sausage Party: Foodtopia Season 2.
The duo said in the clip, “If you loved [Sausage Party: Foodtopia] Season 1, you’re in luck.” While the showrunners seemed glad to announce the second season, they added that if people didn’t like the first season of the series, then they should “go f* yourself.” That’s because they won’t like this season either.

Has Sausage Party: Foodtopia Season 2 Entered Production?
The adult animated series was a massive hit on the streaming platform and performed well. That’s why the streamer is ready to invest more in Sausage Party: Foodtopia. While the show was announced back on July 27, 2024, it’s been four months, and fans haven’t heard anything about Season 2. But don’t fret. That’s because the show has already entered the production stage and is currently in development.
Typically, the animated series takes a year or more to wrap up filming. The first season was announced on October 26, 2022, and it took almost two years to arrive on our screens. This suggests that this series takes nearly two years to wrap up production and animation work. Currently, it is early in the production phase. The scripting work has yet to be finished.
So, considering this, it seems like the animation work will take longer to conclude. According to the reports, the series co-writers Seth, Goldberg, Ariel Shaffir, and Kyle Hunter will return and serve as the show’s executive producers and showrunners.
The other executive producers are James Weaver and Alex McAtee. Conrad Vernon will return to direct the adult animated series and will also serve as executive producer alongside Megan Ellison (Annapurna Television). Point Grey Pictures and Annapurna Television will continue to oversee the show.
Sausage Party: Foodtopia Cast: Who Will Join Season 2?
Several cast members were killed off in the first season. However, those who survived in the finale will surely return for Sausage Party: Foodtopia Season 2. These include Frank Frankfurter (voiced by Seth Rogen), Barry (voiced by Michael Cera), and Sammy Bagel Jr. (voiced by Edward Norton). Sadly, Kristen Wiig as Brenda Bunson won’t return.
That’s because Brenda was killed off in the first season finale. In a war between her and Jeri Rice (voiced by Stephanie Beard), Jeri killed Brenda. However, Jeri also died in the first season, so she won’t return either. Will Forte, as Jack, a surviving human, will also return. Sam Richardson as Julius will also return. Although Julius faced a defeat in the first season, he hasn’t done it yet.
He will indeed return to claim what belongs to him. Season 2 will also bring some new characters to our screen. According to reports, Natasha Rothwell, Jill Talley, Yassir Lester, and Grey DeLisle will join the show. However, their roles have remained under wraps.

What To Expect In Sausage Party: Foodtopia Season 2?
With the talking food defeating humans in the uprising, they discovered that freedom could be terrifying. They now had to deal with the flying monster called a bird and a deadly rainstorm. After dealing with challenging situations, the food finally decided what they wanted. Julius decided to claim a store in the shopping complex all for himself. This led others to think that they should do the same.
This later created complications for everyone as they started being selfish and putting themselves above everyone. The stronger took over the place while the weak left behind to be homeless. However, Barry, Frank, Brenda, and Jack helped to establish justice. Julius was defeated, and it was later revealed that Jeri was controlling him.
It broke a fight between Jeri Rice and Brenda. Brenda died at the end, and a bird ate Jeri Rice. While this marked the end of Brenda and Jira, Julius was still running loose. He was undoubtedly an over-the-top bad guy. So, without any doubt, he will return in Season 2 to claim what belongs to him.
As for Frank, he will lose his control. Frank has his own weak points, and Brenda, his true better half, is killed. So, it won’t be easy for him to deal with the looming challenges. He will try his best to follow Brenda’s ideology. But what happens when Brenda’s memory and ethics start to fade? This will ultimately give birth to a villain who will be unbeatable and create havoc in paradise.
Sausage Party: Foodtopia Season 2 Release Date
