NEW DELHI: Even as it is just picking pace in India, the sequel craze continues in Hollywood.
Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs, a comedy from the Sony Pictures Animation banner, had proved a hit when it was released. And now, Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2 picks up the tale. Inventor Flint Lockwood‘s genius is finally being recognised as he is invited by his idol Chester V to join The Live Corp Company, where the best and brightest inventors in the world create technologies for the betterment of mankind.
Chester‘s right-hand-gal - and one of his greatest inventions - is Barb (a highly evolved orangutan with a human brain, who is also devious, manipulative and likes to wear lipstick. It has always been Flint‘s dream to be recognised as a great inventor, but everything changes when he discovers that his most infamous machine (which turns water into food) is still operating and is now creating food-animal hybrids - "foodimals!" With the fate of humanity in his hands, Chester sends Flint and his friends on a dangerously delicious mission, battling hungry tacodiles, shrimpanzees, apple pie-thons, double bacon cheespiders and other food creatures to save the world again.
Slated for release on 20 December, the animation film has been directed by Cody Cameron and Kris Pearn. It will have the voices of Bill Hader, Anna Faris, James Caan, Will Forte, Kristen Schaal, Terry Crews, Andy Samberg, Neil Patrick Harris and Benjamin Bratt.
