‘Sausage Party’: Get to Know the Delicious Characters
Move over, Pixar!
Step off, DreamWorks!
Sausage Party is the R-rated CGI adventure that we’ve been fervently waiting for.
Sony Pictures
Frank’s a little different from the other hot dogs.
He longs for proof or evidence of their belief system.
He has the layers of illusion peeled away.
Sony Pictures
He starts a deep believer who just has some nagging suspicions basically.
But I think by the end of the movie, he’s much more agnostic.
Rogen:He encompasses the whole-hearted belief-system.
Sony Pictures
He’s a little hornier.
He’s very bun-focused.
He’s not ultimately the best friend to him in the end.
Sony Pictures
Goldberg:We always knew Jonah would be one of the main characters.
We composed [the idea forSausage Party] with Jonah.
It was inevitable he would be somebody.
Sony Pictures
It brought back some fun nostalgic memories from our days onSuperbad.
EW:Does Sausage Party share a cinematic universe withSuperbad?
Goldberg:No, it doesn’t.
Sony Pictures
But me and Michael [Cera] realized it could share a cinematic universe withThis Is The End.
I think they learn a lot.
He and Lavash clash the whole way, because they do not believe than can co-exist and get along.
Sony Pictures
Edward is a good friend of ours.
When we told him about this project, he flipped and became obsessed with it.
He was a huge champion for the project.
Sony Pictures
We didn’t know Salma Hayek very well, he badgered her to do it.
Goldberg:Much to our complete amazement, she said yes!
Teresa’s someone they pick up on their journey.
Sony Pictures
You guys are dealing with some heavy topics here.
People are going to walk away with a lot of food for thought.
I did not mean to say that.
Sony Pictures
Goldberg:This is a launch for the next movie, where we start a religion.
Rogen:We’re L-ronning it all the way to the bank!
Potato, voiced by director Greg Tiernan
Rogen:He is a potato.
Gum is the most intelligent being alive.
It would be a lot like that movie with Eddie Redmayne.
