The Bill Hader-led films spun-off into a Netflix series in 2017.
The Big Picture Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs introduced audiences to an inventor who focused on creating devices that could help humanity, only to provoke a unique disaster that almost destroyed the planet with giant pieces of food. But according to a tweet from Phil Lord, one of the directors behind the franchise, the story was set to continue in a third installment that never entered production.
The sequel to the original 2009 animated comedy that was able to release in theaters was Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2, making its way to the big screen in 2013. After Flint had sent the island into chaos during the previous installment, he was hired by his childhood idol during the second movie to clean up the consequences of his weather machine working incorrectly.
After the success they found when the first Cloudy movie was released, Phil Lord and Chris Miller received many different offers from studios to expand their careers. With the duo focused on the development of many different projects, there wasn't any more time for them to come back and spend years developing the sequel to their animated adventure.
One Block at a Time Lord and Miller were already working on The LEGO Movie, the story taking the popular brand of building toys to a whole new lever with its creative storytelling. Even if the duo didn't direct the sequel to Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, they outlined the plot of the sequel before handing over the franchise to other people. After the second movie, Flint Lockwood was sent directly to Netflix, in a television series where he was voiced by Mark Edwards instead of Hader.
