Dog Man (2025) is an animated action-comedy feature film produced by DreamWorks Animation and based on the hugely popular, global bestselling graphic novel series by Dav Pilkey. Directed by Peter Hastings, the movie brings to life the beloved hero who is half-dog and half-policeman.

Combining vibrant animation, slapstick humor, and heart-warming themes of empathy, family, and second chances, Dog Man delivers an entertaining cinematic experience tailored for audiences of all ages. Featuring an all-star voice cast including Pete Davidson, Lil Rel Howery, and Isla Fisher, the film promises a fresh comic-book aesthetic paired with high-energy animated storytelling.
