Synopsis 
After the defeat of Professor Poopypants. Captain Underpants, George and Harold must stop the hungry Talking Toilets before they eat every human on Earth!
Production
After Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie, DreamWorks decided to work on a Captain Underpants Netflix show, a Dog Man movie and a sequel to Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie.
DreamWorks' biggest fear was that the sequel would lose money, the first one made $125 million and while it was a success since it only had a $38 million dollar budget, it's still low compared to other box offices for other animated films, but they still wanted to give Captain Underpants 2 a shot. The film began production.
On January 23, 2020, a sequel was announced.
On November 7, 2020 a teaser poster was released, showing Captain Underpants, holding a large number two on a yellow background. 
On December 6, 2020 a 30 second teaser was shown in many theatres, the teaser had the Talking Toilets attacking and eating people, when all of a sudden Captain Underpants flies thru a wall and punches many of the Toilets with George and Harold holding on to Captain Underpants' cape, it then zooms out and Captain Underpants flies and makes a symbol of the number two, while the words Captain Underpants and The Thrilling Sequel appear.
After these short teasers, a teaser-trailer was released on January 7, 2022, which featured one scene of Captain Underpants fighting numerous villains, before it cutting to Captain Underpants walking back, and seeing the all-new upgraded Turbo Toilet, with it now having self-consciousness.
On February 8, 2022 the official trailer was released, trailer 2 was released on April 1st 2022, and the final trailer was released on April 24, 2022.
Captain Underpants 2: The Thrilling Sequel was released on June 2nd 2022 exactly for the 5th anniversary of Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie and the 25th anniversary of Captain Underpants.
Marketing
The film had promotional support from McDonald's, which released twelve toys in its happy meals. 
A bunch of people dressed up in suits with underwear over their pants and went in groups to watch this film in cinemas, similar to the situation with Minions: The Rise of Gru (2022). This didn't have nearly the same impact on the box office as it had on Minions: The Rise of Gru, but it still helped this movie. 
In 2017, a line of Funko Pops for the movie Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (2017) were released, however only 2 were made, however this time for the sequel they made George and Harold, Mr. Krupp and the Talking Toilets, they also released a Captain Underpants Funko Pop toy, but it was just the 2017 one re-packaged. 
A line of action figures were released by Mattel, which sold very well. 
Many Build-Boards were put in the USA and across the world to advertise the film.
