Why It Was Cancelled

 * 1) The first film was a box-office disappointment.
 * 2) Fans of the book were offended about how many adult jokes were in the first film.
 * 3) Dr. Seuss' widow put a permanent red light to all future live-action adaptations of her late husband's work.
 * 4) Spencer Breslin and Dakota Fanning are too old to reprise their roles as Conrad and Sally respectively.
 * 5) Mike Myers didn’t want to play the title character again.

Results

 * The sequel was permanently cancelled and the first film is a stand-alone film.
 * There are plans for an animated adaptation of The Cat In The Hat  and its possible sequel, which was announced by Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment, following the success of The Lorax. However, plans to the film weren't announced since then.

 * There are two animated theatrical films released, Horton Hears A Who (by Fox and Blue Sky) and The Lorax (by Universal and Illumination).
