The animated film franchise “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs” has thrilled audiences of all ages with its quirky humor, inventive plot, and delectable animation. The 1978 children’s book was the inspiration for the original Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs, which was directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller (The LEGO Movie).

The plot revolves around Flint (voiced by Bill Hader), a clumsy scientist who invents a device called the “Flint Lockwood Diatonic Super Mutating Dynamic Food Replicator” that can turn water into food. While his city of Swallow Falls first celebrates his discovery, the machine sound generates food storms that threaten to destroy the earth.

Following the success of the previous two films, fans have been waiting for word of a potential third installment with bated breath. This article will look at the likelihood of “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 3” and what we know about its development.

Is Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 3 Confirmed?

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 3 has yet to be formally confirmed or greenlit by Sony Animation. However, comments made by writer and co-creator Phil Lord in 2023 indicate that work on the threequel is already begun.

With Lord’s comments reigniting speculation over what could be titled PLANET OF THE GRAPES, Sony could soon confirm Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.

What Could Be the Release Date of Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 3?

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 3 has yet to be released. Sony has yet to formally announce the next installment in the franchise, though a script is said to have been written prior to the WGA writer’s strike, which is set to begin in May 2023.

However, because work was so early at the time, a Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs release date before 2025 seemed doubtful.

Who Will Be in the Cast of Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 3?

There have been no announcements on the recasting of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 3. While the film has yet to be formally confirmed, most, if not all, of the original series ensemble, is expected to return for a third Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs film.

Given that the Sony Animated feature’s actors and their humorous performances helped make the prior two films so charming, it’s unlikely that the studio would want to upset the successful box-office formula for PLANET OF THE GRAPES. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 3’s cast would almost certainly include:

• Bill Hader as Flint Lockwood.
• Anna Faris as Sam Sparks.
• Neil Patrick Harris as Flint’s pet monkey Steve.
• James Caan as Flint’s father Tim Lockwood.
• Andy Samberg as Sardine Cannery mascot Brent “Baby” McHale.
• Terry Crews as Officer Earl Devereux.
• Benjamin Bratt as Cal, Earl’s son, and Manny, Sam’s cameraman.
• Kristen Schaal as Barb, the intelligent Orangutan.

What Will Happen in Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 3?

There have been no narrative announcements for Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 3. The plot could, however, loosely resemble the third book in the original book trilogy, Planet of the Pies, given the alleged working title of PLANET OF THE GRAPES.

The plot of the final book in Judi and Ron Barrett’s trilogy — about Martians on Mars being overwhelmed by daily pie storms — could hint at a space-faring adventure when Flint, Sam, and Steve return for Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 3.
