Article Summary

  • Dreamworks unveiled a behind-the-scenes clip for The Bad Guys 2 showing animated characters "doing their own stunts".
  • The playful video offers a fun twist on typical animated movie BTS content, including a Mission: Impossible joke.
  • Dreamworks continues with unique promotions following a strong year with The Wild Robot and a tougher release for Dog Man.
  • The Bad Guys 2 aims to draw more love from fans with its original cast, humor, and action-packed adventure.

This is cute, and me thinks Dreamworks should do more of these. Usually, when we get behind-the-scenes stuff for animated movies, we learn about the animation process, which is awesome. We love to see it. However, this is something fun, and it's breaking the fourth wall in a way that's pretty cute. Dreamworks released a behind-the-scenes clip showing how the titular characters in The Bad Guys 2 do all of their own stunts, and we see them filming one of the big action set pieces in the film. They even make a Mission: Impossible joke. Dreamworks had an incredible 2024 with The Wild Robot, but things were a bit rough with Dog Man earlier this year. The last film didn't get nearly enough love, so hopefully, people check this one out.

The Bad Guys 2: Summary, Cast List, Release Date

Everyone's favorite felons are back, and this time, they've got company.

In the new action-packed chapter from DreamWorks Animation's acclaimed comedy smash about a crackerjack crew of animal outlaws, our now-reformed Bad Guys are trying (very, very hard) to be good, but instead find themselves hijacked into a high-stakes, globe-trotting heist, masterminded by a new team of criminals they never saw coming: The Bad Girls.

Based on the New York Times best-selling book series by Aaron Blabey, which has soared from 8 million to over 30 million copies sold since the first film's release in 2022, The Bad Guys 2 stars the stellar original cast, led by Academy Award® winner Sam Rockwell as Mr. Wolf, SAG award nominee Marc Maron as safe-cracker Mr. Snake, SAG award nominee Craig Robinson as master-of disguise Mr. Shark, Grammy winner Anthony Ramos as Mr. Piranha and Emmy winner Awkwafina as hacker Ms. Tarantula, aka "Webs."

The returning voice cast is joined by a new trio of comedic powerhouses as The Bad Girls: Oscar® nominee Danielle Brooks (The Color Purple) as Bad Girls leader Kitty Kat, a dangerously clever snow leopard; Oscar® nominee Maria Bakalova (Borat Subsequent Movie Film) as Pigtail, a brilliant Bulgarian wild boar engineer; and Emmy nominee and comedy icon Natasha Lyonne (Russian Doll, Poker Face) as Doom, a wry raven with a knack for deception.

From celebrated returning director Pierre Perifel and producer Damon Ross, The Bad Guys 2 also features the alumni voice talents of Emmy nominee Zazie Beetz as Governor Diane Foxington, BAFTA winner Richard Ayoade as Professor Marmalade, Emmy winner Alex Borstein as Police Chief (now Commissioner) Misty Luggins and Lilly Singh as sensationalist reporter Tiffany Fluffit.

The Bad Guys 2 is co-directed by JP Sans, who served as head of character animation on the first film. The music is by Oscar®-nominated returning composer Daniel Pemberton.  It will be released in theaters on August 1, 2025.
