1"First Course" Conrad Vernon Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, Kyle Hunter & Ariel ShaffirJuly 11, 2024 (2024-07-11)
Following the events of Sausage Party , the food items at Shopwell's, led by Frank, Brenda, Barry, Lavash, Sammy, and Gum, stage an uprising and successfully overthrow the human race by killing them, resulting in food to become the new dominant species on Earth, now free to do whatever they want. However, Sammy struggles to move past Lavash's death, as he was killed during the uprising, and Barry struggles to wind down, having a desire for action. A rainstorm arrives, resulting in a flash flood that leads to numerous deaths; Gum sacrifices himself to save his friends from falling into a sewer drain, and Barry goes off to rescue the food that has been washed away. With their promised land completely ruined, the food, realizing that Frank and Brenda have no idea what they are doing, decide to go back to Shopwell's, claiming it is safer despite the store falling apart, making Frank and Brenda comment that they wish they had a human to help them out. Meanwhile, Barry discovers a human, Richie, escaping with the food he is saving.
2"Second Course"Conrad VernonAli WallerJuly 11, 2024 (2024-07-11)
Frank, Brenda, and Barry search for Richie to learn about rain, but Barry kills Richie before they get answers. They are ambushed by Richie’s friends, Jack and Donny. Barry, inspired by Douche, takes control of Jack by injecting himself into Jack’s butt, forcing Jack to kill Donny. At Shopwell’s, Sammy discovers a talent for stand-up comedy, amusing the other foods. Their laughter causes the store to collapse, but they escape using an exit opened by Jack. With Shopwell’s destroyed, Frank and Brenda encourage everyone to find a new home. As they settle into their new life, the foods, influenced by an orange named Julius, begin hoarding buildings, creating chaos and leaving smaller foods homeless. Barry prepares to kill Jack, while Sammy suggests celebrating with a festival.
3"Third Course"Conrad VernonDewayne PerkinsJuly 11, 2024 (2024-07-11)
The foods are getting themselves ready for the "Burning Man" Festival, where they will sacrifice Jack in front of a large audience by burning him alive. While holding auditions for the ceremony's performances, a crow arrives and starts attacking. After Barry's initial attempt to stop it fails, Frank and Brenda consult Jack once more on how to stop it, to which he suggests using the corpse of a dead human as a makeshift scarecrow, which successfully scares it away. Because of this, Frank and Brenda consider delaying Jack's sacrifice in case they need more of his help, but Barry refuses, telling them that Jack must die and will not take any excuses. That night, as the festival occurs, Julius offers to let smaller foods view the show from his building in exchange for their human teeth, their newfound form of currency. Going against Barry's wishes, Frank and Brenda secretly decide to spare Jack, and Frank manages to find another live human to control in order to take Jack's place, successfully fooling everyone into believing Jack is dead. Frank and Brenda take Jack to their treehouse to hide, only to start second-guessing their decision when Jack begins to rattle off what he'd like to eat.
4"Fourth Course"Conrad VernonJennifer KimJuly 11, 2024 (2024-07-11)
Using his newfound wealth in human teeth, Julius decides to expand his empire by buying buildings from their owners. Sammy, desiring to be in the spotlight once more, discovers an electronics store owned by a cereal box. After being ejected, an enraged Sammy attacks him and proceeds to hijack the store, where he continues his comedy act. While bringing a human foot for Jack to eat, Frank and Brenda discover that foods are being robbed of their teeth, prompting them and Barry to enforce a new police system. During a trial, Frank and Brenda discover that the foods accused of stealing teeth consist entirely of perishables, who are showing signs of molding and live in slum-like conditions due to their inability to afford Julius' refrigerated housing. Appearing on Sammy's newest show, Frank and Brenda propose that those who own lots of teeth should offer them to those who don't, but Julius, who is in the audience, manages to turn everyone against them by arguing that they're taking away everyone's freedom and suggests that they hold an election in order to determine a new leader for Foodtopia. Meanwhile, Barry discovers Jack's footprints, and Jack, realizing he has no other choice, converts to cannibalism and tearfully eats the foot Frank and Brenda gave him earlier.
5"Fifth Course"Conrad VernonLaura KrafftJuly 11, 2024 (2024-07-11)
Julius is establishing a capitalist system through his massage center, and has now become the owner of several businesses while actively campaigning to be elected as the leader of Foodtopia. Suddenly, Sammy is arrested after being reported by the cereal box for kicking him out of his building. Frank and Brenda make a case for fair distribution of wealth, only for Julius to get them removed through the task force, solely because he can. During Sammy's trial, Julius bribes the judge into ruling in Sammy's favor, putting Sammy under Julius' thumb so he can use the broadcasting system to propagate his propaganda against Frank and Brenda. Meanwhile, Barry is suspicious about the human footprint and investigates it. At the treehouse, Jack reveals that everything Frank and Brenda aim to do is exactly what human society was built on. Frank feels that they do not have enough teeth to influence other foods as Julius does and is influenced by Jack’s proposal of stealing from Julius, but Brenda feels they should lead by example instead of influence. Back in the city, Frank comes across Sammy helping Julius’ propaganda and confronts him, but Julius has clearly bought Sammy’s loyalty. Ultimately, Frank decides to act on his “fast and furious” plan. Barry suspiciously follows him, but loses him midway. That night, Frank successfully carries out a heist of teeth while Brenda is busy doing her door-to-door campaigning. When Brenda comes across this heist, she is unable to support Frank, who had taken Jack's side, and they part ways sadly.
6"Sixth Course"Conrad VernonJeremy Levick & Rajat SureshJuly 11, 2024 (2024-07-11)
Foodtopia is on high alert to find the culprit behind the theft of Julius’ teeth. Since Frank disguised himself as a potato, all the potatoes find themselves in trouble. Barry overhears a conversation about the culprit being a tall sausage and becomes suspicious of Frank. Meanwhile, Jack helps Frank gain confidence to run for the elections, and they seem to become fast friends. Frank practices becoming the president under his guidance. Brenda is putting all her efforts into mobilizing votes from the slums. Barry confronts her, and she tells him everything about the living human. Meanwhile, Frank and Jack grow close, eventually engaging in sexual intercourse when Brenda and Barry catch them in the act, leading to Jack breaking free from being a hostage and fleeing to the woods, fearing for his life. Frank swears to love Jack, but draws a line with Barry secretly watching him, and they finally part ways. On election day, Brenda announces that she is campaigning individually and appeals for a toothless society, which is not taken well by the foods. She further discloses that Frank had intercourse with a human, and both of them eventually bring each other down, resulting in Julius winning the election.
7"Seventh Course"Conrad VernonDewayne PerkinsJuly 11, 2024 (2024-07-11)
As Julius proclaims himself the emperor of Foodtopia, the divide between the haves and have-nots has intensified. Sammy has completely turned to Julius’ side and has certainly lost his way with his new mantra and personality. Frank apologizes to Barry and Brenda for his behavior, although only the latter forgives him, making Barry realize that good food can go bad but that there is redemption for them too. This realization comes after he watches Frank part ways with Jack. Barry talks to Sammy, who finds himself a slave to Julius. However, after Barry tries to make him realize his fault, stating to be aware of Lavash’s death severely affecting him, Sammy turns violent and refuses to listen to reason, leading Barry to leave the place. Brenda goes to visit Julius to talk to him about the foods dying in the street but is not allowed a meeting. She hears sounds coming from the air vent and follows it to find Julius in captivity. She realizes that Julius is being controlled by a small rice grain named Jeri who felt neglected by all the selfish foods in Foodtopia after the war. When she secretly saw Barry controlling Jack through his anus, she decided to do the same and controlled Julius to fulfill her selfish agenda. She then takes control of Julius’ body and engages in a fistfight with Brenda, ultimately deceiving her, removing herself from the orange, and opening the tap of the kitchen sink. In the meantime, Frank ends up in the kitchen to find Brenda torn up from the cutter in the drainage. Brenda dies in his arms while Jeri frames Frank by gaining control of Julius again.
8"Eight Course"Conrad VernonKyle Hunter & Ariel ShaffirJuly 11, 2024 (2024-07-11)
The residents of Foodtopia grieve the loss of Brenda while Frank is imprisoned. The shock of Brenda’s death even has Sammy finally make peace with Lavash’s death along with hers. Julius asks Sammy to help him turn Frank into the perpetrator, but Sammy refuses, so he is replaced by “Dunkin Doughnut” as the host. Sammy and Barry then visit Frank, who denies murdering Brenda. After they leave, they come across Werner Herzdog, who shows them a clip of Brenda and Julius’ tussle on the day of her murder, revealing Jeri to be the real culprit. Barry and Sammy plan to get this footage live before Frank is burned and killed on a barbecue. They visit Jack, who is living while eating the remains of his friend in the woods, and they persuade him to help Frank, so he throws a frisbee with Barry and Sammy hidden underneath through the vent of the broadcasting station. At the station, after a courageous fight, Sammy shows the video to the foods, claiming that Frank is innocent. Barry and the other foods save Frank, but Julius takes off running. Jack helps Barry catch Julius, squeezes Jeri out of his anus, and apprehends her. He tries to break her before Frank stops him and says that he forgives Jeri. Frank makes a case for the residents to forgive each other and start a new healthy and helpful society. Jeri feels grateful and emotional but is swiftly eaten by the crow. Despite Frank’s passionate speech, the residents have gotten used to their new way of life and refuse to change. Instead, new foods nominate themselves for leader, and the powerful rule over the weak. Frank goes back to the treehouse dejected but remembers Brenda’s message that the foods are their children and they need to fix Foodtopia. He invades an election with Jack’s help and declares himself the leader, ordering that all food will follow him alone and that they can’t be trusted to make their own decisions. Unbeknownst to everyone, a drone is secretly hovering and watching them from above.

Production

Development

Rogen had expressed interest in making a sequel to Sausage Party and more animated films aimed for adults. When asked about the possibility of a sequel, Rogen stated: "It's something we talk about, yeah. That's one of the reasons why we took away the [original] ending [6] because we thought, well, if that was the first scene of the next movie it's probably not what you would want it to be, with them just seeing us and finding us basically. But the idea of a live-action/animated movie, like a Who Framed Roger Rabbit?-style hybrid, is also very exciting, mostly because Who Framed Roger Rabbit? is one of my favorite movies of all time." [7]

On October 26, 2022, it was announced that Amazon had ordered a sequel from Point Grey Pictures, Annapurna Television, and Sony Pictures Television the co-writers Kyle Hunter and Ariel Shaffir returning to develop and executive produce the series under their production company Shaffirwhich while some of the cast (including Rogen, who co-wrote, co-produced, and created the film alongside creative partner Evan Goldberg) returning to reprise their roles, along with new members like Will Forte, Natasha Rothwell, Sam Richardson and Yassir Lester. [8]

Animation

Baird after its first film Nimona (2023) was released on Netflix, produces with Rogen, Goldberg, James Weaver, Alex McAtee, Megan Ellison and Patrick Chu on the series while co-producer/co-director Conrad Vernon returns as a supervising director. [11]

Release

On May 1, 2024, it was announced that the series would premiere on Amazon Prime Video on July 11, 2024. [5] A second season is currently in development. [12]

Reception

On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the series holds a 46% approval rating based on 24 reviews with an average rating of 5.7/10. The website's critics consensus reads: "Clean up on aisle three—Foodtopia has plenty of rancid gags to tide over fans of Seth Rogen's sense of humor, but this follow-up can't help but feel like stale leftovers." [13] On Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, the series assigned a score of 54 out of 100 based on 16 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". [14]

Notes
