Cloudy 2 Revenge of the Leftovers Is Coming

Posted byBy Jarel McRae | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Ready for the delicious sequel to Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, because this fall Cloudy 2: Revenge of the Leftovers, is storming its way into the stomach of theaters.

After the horrible food storm that took place in the first film, Flint (Bill Hader) and his friends are forced to leave their small town of Chewandswallow. Flint then accepts an invitation from his role model Chester V to join the Live Corp Company, whose duty was to clean the island and the place where the best investors in the world create technology to help  better the human race. He soon discovers that his food machine is still operational and is now creating mutant food beasts and now he and his friends must return to save the world.

The film is the sequel to the Sony Pictures’ 2009 animated film Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, based on the Judi Barrett’s book Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. It is being directed by both Cody Cameron and Kris Pearn, with producer Kirk Bodyfelt, and executive produced by the directors of the first film, Phil Lord and Chris Miller.

Cloudy 2 stars Bill Hader, Anna Faris, James Caan, Andy Samberg, Neil Patrick Harris, Benjamin Bratt, Terry Crews, Will Forte and Kristen Schaal.

Expect to see Cloudy 2: Revenge of the Leftovers in theaters September 27, 2013.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
