In August 2018, LaRoque stated that he is unsure if he can direct another Computer Opolis 5 sequel due to his focus on directing Mechagirl. Jesse McCartney, the voice of Peri Dazz, has also stated about a possible 5 installment: we see if plans for the 5 film go well. 3 days later, Universal confirmed that the 5 installment is already moving forward from Universal Animation. McCartney and Spade have expressed interests in reprising their roles in the 5 film. While the 5 installment is in early development, LaRoque announced that he will not be directing the 5 film to work on his original movie Mechagirl instead, but will remain as an executive producer like he did in the 3 film and will still write the screenplay to the 5 film. On August 11, 2018, it was reported that Gary Hall story supervisor of the first 4 Computer Opolis films and co director of Paradoria is in talks to direct the 5 installment. Later that day, Hall confirmed in his interview that he will indeed direct the 5 installment.
