Only Jean Schulz has the final say whether Steve Martino's "The Peanut Movie" is going to have a sequel or not, despite the film's success.

Schulz, the widow of "Peanuts" creator Charles Schulz, expressed her thoughts about the film's success. In her interview with The Wrap, Jean said that his husband Charles would have been very delighted with "The Peanut Movie" and its success. However, she said that she was no rush to produce a sequel. Jean said that Martino's film had taken eight years, so a sequel might had to be talked again.

According to Cinema Blend, acquiring the core of its source material factored in to the success of "The Peanut Movie." Should Jean give a greenlight for a sequel, then fans who have seen the first film would appreciate the next one.
