Dog Man

Plot

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, he must stop the pretty evil plots of feline supervillain Petey the Cat.

About Dog Man

Dog Man is a 2025 American animated superhero comedy film produced by DreamWorks Animation and based on the children's graphic novel series by Dav Pilkey. A spin-off to Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (2017), the film was written and directed by Peter Hastings, and stars the voices of Pete Davidson, Lil Rel Howery, Isla Fisher, Lucas Hopkins Calderon, and Ricky Gervais, with Hastings providing vocal effects for Dog Man. The film follows the title character as he defends Ohkay City from Petey, a supervillain cat who inadvertently becomes the father of an infant clone, and later on, Petey joins forces with Dog Man and the others to defeat Flippy the Fish, a cybernetic butterflyfish with telekinesis. DreamWorks Animation announced a film adaptation of Dog Man in December 2020, with Hastings set to write and direct after his experience with Pilkey's works from The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants (2018–2020). Karen Foster joined as a producer in January 2024, and the cast was announced that September. Dog Man premiered at the 2025 Festival de l'Alpe d'Huez in Alpe d'Huez, France on January 15, 2025, and was theatrically released in the United States on January 31 by Universal Pictures. The film received generally positive reviews from critics and grossed $146.1 million worldwide on a $40 million budget. A sequel is in development.
