Part dog, part man, all hero.
From DreamWorks Animation—creators of the beloved blockbuster franchises Kung Fu Panda, How to Train Your Dragon and The Boss Baby—comes the canine-crime-fighting film adaptation of Dav Pilkey’s New York Times bestselling literary phenomenon: Dog Man.
When a faithful police dog and his human police officer owner are injured together on the job, a harebrained but life-saving surgery fuses the two of them together and Dog Man is born. Dog Man is sworn to protect and serve—and fetch, sit and roll over.
As Dog Man embraces his new identity and strives to impress his Chief (Lil Rel Howery, Get Out, Free Guy), he must stop the pretty evil plots of feline supervillain Petey the Cat (Pete Davidson; Saturday Night Live, The King of Staten Island). Petey’s latest plan is to clone himself, creating the kitten Lil Petey, to double his ability to do crime stuff. Things get complicated, though, when Lil Petey forges an unexpected bond with Dog Man.
When Lil Petey falls into the clutches of a common enemy, Dog Man and Petey reluctantly join forces in an action-packed race against time to rescue the young kitten. In the process, they discover the power of family (and kittens!) to bring even the most hostile foes together.
Dog Man also stars Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers, Rango) as TV reporter Sarah Hatoff; Poppy Liu (Hacks, The Afterparty) as Petey’s assistant, Butler; Emmy nominee Stephen Root (Barry, King of the Hill) as Grampa; Billy Boyd (the Lord of the Rings franchise, Seed of Chucky) as Sarah’s cameraman, Seamus; and Emmy and Golden Globe winner Ricky Gervais (The Office, Extras) as Flippy the fish.
Dog Man is directed by Emmy winner Peter Hastings (The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants, Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness), whose credits include the groundbreaking animated series Animaniacs and Pinky and the Brain. The film is produced by Karen Foster (Spirit Untamed), who served as co-producer on DreamWorks Animation’s How to Train Your Dragon.
Launched in 2016 by Dav Pilkey—the #1 global bestselling author and award-winning illustrator of the Captain Underpants books—the Dog Man Scholastic series now includes 12 books. The series has more than 60 million copies in print and has been translated into 47 languages. Cat Kid Comic Club, a spin-off of Dog Man launched in 2020, has also topped bestseller lists around the world. The most recent Dog Man book, Dog Man: Twenty Thousand Fleas Under the Sea, was overall the #1 bestselling children’s book in the U.S. in 2023, across all children’s formats and ages. Pilkey’s newest book in the Dog Man Series, Dog Man: Big Jim Begins, is set to release on December 3, 2024.
DreamWorks Animation’s Dog Man will be distributed by Universal Pictures.

I respect they kept Dogman a silent character rather than shoehorning in a celebrity to voice him.
-
I LOVE THAT FACT THAT SARAH HATOFF HAS THE AUSTRALIAN ACCENT!!!! It is sooooo canon in the DogMan universe!!!
-
Take notes, Warner Bros. This is how you make an adaptation that understands its target audience.
-
Bro, the moment you realize, Dog Man was just a Lobotomy Subject…
-
As someone who's read Dog Man as a kid, thank you Dreamworks. This is EXACTLY how it should've looked like in an animated movie.
-
I appreciate when a movie adaptation stays faithful to it's original style.
-
When Petey said “what is he, some kind of dog-man?” It was the most beautiful and well-written line in all of cinema
-
Back in the day, when I was a kid, I used to read Dog Man books. Now at almost 16 years old, it brings me joy to find out that they're actually making a movie adaption of the book series. This trailer has the same vibe the Captain Underpants movie from 2017 had. I respect Dreamworks for bringing something from my childhood from a book to the big screen.
-
2:05 i love how petey sneaks by exactly as this happens
-
PLEASE GEORGE AND HAROLD CAMEO AT THE END AND MY MONEY IS YOURS DREAMWORKS
-
I really hope there’s a running gag where it zooms out to George and Harold writing the comic.
-
1:40 notice how petey has 5 whiskers now. That means this is the cloning scene where he creates lil petey!!
-
Dav Pilkey has proven his teachers wrong…
-
"Wait, arent dogs colorblind?" i really love that line.
-
dog man be the childhood book for me, its best banger comic ever
-
This is EXACTLY what I wanted out of a DogMan movie. Dreamworks is cooking with this adaptation! Unlike another movie studio.
-
i love how dreamworks always locks tf in for dav pilkey adaptations 😭😭
-
Petey's voice isn't how I thought Petey would sound in my head, but it's not bad, just unexpected.
-
“How evil can one cat be!?” “Pretty evil” that part is just amazing
-
1:03 Notice how the newspaper is written by tree house comix, which is what George and Harold brand their comics by. This label is found on basically every comic they write in captain underpants, and its also on the label of super diaper baby.
