Of all I.P. getting the TV treatment nowadays, you have to be shocked that something like “Sausage Party” is getting a sequel series nearly a decade after it debuted. But hey, we live in an age of streaming, and why not give Seth Rogen some more time to pretend he’s a hot dog?

Now, we have our first real look at the upcoming TV series, “Sausage Party: Foodtopia,” which serves as a sequel to the 2016 original film.Here’s the official synopsis: “Based off the 2016 animated feature Sausage Party, the series Sausage Party: Foodtopia follows Frank, Brenda, Barry, and Sammy as they try to build their own food society.”
While quite a bit of time has passed since the original film, it’s clear the vibe has not changed in eight years. This is still a raunchy animated comedy series about a bunch of food trying to figure out how to live long lives. In an age where we have hits like “Rick & Morty,” which continues to push the envelope, as well as other shows from Rogen like “The Boys,” it’s clear that a streaming service, such as Prime Video, is a perfect place to continue the “Sausage Party” legacy.
As mentioned, Rogen returns, as do members of the film cast such as Kristen Wiig, Michael Cera, David Krumholtz, and Edward Norton. Joining in time for the sequel are folks such as Will Forte, Natasha Rothwell, Sam Richardson, and Yassir Lester.
“Sausage Party: Foodtopia” debuts on Prime Video on July 11. You can watch the trailer below:
