Did you know that Monsters Inc almost had a sequel? It would have seen Mike and Sulley trapped in the human world, reuniting with Randall and meeting all sorts of new banished monsters, on a quest to reunite with Boo.

In 2004, Disney and Pixar were at war. In 2005, it all fell apart. In retaliation to Pixar, Disney’s at the time CEO, Michael Eisner, opened up Circle 7 Animation. Their goal was simple, make sequels to Pixar movies.

They had 3 initial sequels lined up. Toy Story 3, Monsters Inc 2: Lost in Scaradise, and Finding Nemo 2. Lost in Scaradise is the only one of these movies where the plot was unknown to the public until now. Rob Muir, one of the cancelled film's screenwriter was gracious enough to sit down with me for an interview where we discussed the movie, and I can't thank him enough. Here on Canned Goods, we can exclusively reveal to you the story of Monsters Inc 2.

Today, in honor of Monsters at Work’s release, we’ll be breaking down the development, plot, and cancellation of Monsters Inc’s unmade sequel: Monsters Inc 2: Lost in Scaradise.

Enjoy!
