Overview
- Oswalt said on The Daily Beast’s 'Obsessed' podcast in mid-June that he would "love" to reprise Remy but only if director Brad Bird brings an irresistible, organic story idea.
- He stressed that a sequel should grow naturally from a strong director-led concept rather than from studio-driven brainstorming or a blunt franchise play.
- There is no Ratatouille sequel reported to be in development and Pixar has not announced any follow-up for the 2007 film.
- Ratatouille’s lasting reputation—an Oscar for Best Animated Feature and roughly $623 million at the box office—helps explain why both fans and creators are cautious about a rushed sequel.
- Pixar is prioritizing other sequels such as Toy Story 5, Incredibles 3, Monsters, Inc. 3 and Coco 2, so director Bird’s interest and a clear story pitch are the key things to watch next.
