The beloved children’s book “Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs” has scored two additions to its voice cast. Apparently Bill Hader and Mr. T have joined the animated adaptation due January 15 2010. We’re honestly unfamiliar with the kids book, but apparently the story follows “a scientist who tries to solve world hunger only to see things go awry as food falls from the sky in abundance.” Anna Faris is one of the lead cast members to lend their voice and apparently so is, Andy Samberg. We’re just glad that Mark Mothersbaugh is composing the score and that Mr. T is getting work. [Cinematical]

I have Mr. T as the voice on my GPS. It is the real Mr. T, I got it from Navtones.com that do loads of cool celebrity voices. I think Mr. T will do a great job as a voice on a child’s book.
Oh, one of my favorite books as a kid! The scientist part is irrelevant in the book, but the basic concept is the same. It’s basically just the world with edible weather. People would bring out their plates and enjoy ketchup tornados, mashed potato snow, the like. Such a fun book, I really hope this is great. I have faith in Mark Mothersbaugh so I’m sure that him alone is good news.
