DOG MAN Pounces Onto Digital Feb. 18 and Blu-ray April 1

Part man, part dog, all hero. As the DOG MAN graphic novel film adaptation continues to capture the hearts of audiences in theaters, this animated comedy adventure for the whole family will be available exclusively on digital platforms to own or rent February 18, 2025, from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. Experience exclusive deleted scenes, how-to-draw tutorials from the animators themselves, recording booth bloopers, and more only when you purchase from participating digital retailers nationwide, including Apple TV, Fandango at Home (formerly Vudu), Comcast Xfinity, Cox, Microsoft Movies & TV, and Movies Anywhere. Filled to the brim with humor, heart, and tail-wagging action, DOG MAN will also debut on Blu-ray™ and DVD on April 1, 2025.

From DreamWorks Animation – creators of How to Train Your Dragon and The Wild Robot – comes the canine crime-fighting film adaptation of Dav Pilkey’s literary phenomenon: DOG MAN.  When a faithful police dog and his human police officer owner are injured on the job, a harebrained surgery fuses the two of them together and Dog Man is born! As he embraces his new identity and strives to impress his Chief (Lil Rel Howery, Get Out), Dog Man must stop the villainous Petey the Cat (Pete Davidson, “Saturday Night Live”) from cloning himself and creating an evil kitten, doubling his evil abilities. The story takes a turn when the kitten forges an unexpected bond with Dog Man and in the process, they discover the power of family to bring even the most hostile foes together.

DOG MAN is expertly written and directed by Peter Hastings (“The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants,” “Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness”). The film also stars Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers, Rango), Poppy Liu (“Hacks,” The Afterparty), Stephen Root (“Barry,” “King of the Hill”), Billy Boyd (Lord of the Rings franchise, Seed of Chucky), and Ricky Gervais (“The Office,” “Extras”). The film is produced by Karen Foster.
