Ratatouille 2 Will Never Happen, Says Director Brad Bird

Bird said Pixar has hinted at a follow-up, but he said the 2007 story is already complete.

  • On Thursday, Ratatouille director Brad Bird told Collider he has no plans for a sequel, despite interest from Pixar executives, stating plainly, "No, we told that story."
  • Bird, who also helmed The Incredibles and The Iron Giant, rejects sequels that feel inorganic, believing stories should arise naturally rather than from forced development.
  • Patton Oswalt, who voiced Remy, clarified he would only return if Bird led the project, saying, "Obviously, I'd love if there was a Ratatouille sequel."
  • Pixar executives have made "little feints" to gauge Bird's interest in a follow-up, cracking jokes that are "a little bit serious," but he consistently rebuffs these attempts.
  • Bird is currently working on Ray Gunn, set for a December release on Netflix, while Incredibles is expanding as he remains open to that specific franchise.
