Dog Man

Dog Man is a 2018 American 3D computer-animated comedy film based on the comic book series of the same name by George Beard and Harold Hutchins. From DreamWorks Animation, the film is written and directed by George Beard and Harold Hutchins. It is the first DreamWorks Animation film to be distributed by Universal Pictures, whose parent company NBCUniversal acquired DWA in 2016, rather than 20th Century Fox, with which the studio previously had a distribution deal. The film features the voices of Kel Mitchell, Ed Helms, Billy Crystal, James Corden, Amy Poehler, Will Arnett, Nick Kroll, Jimmy Kimmel, and Tyler Perry. In the film, Dog Man must stop Petey and his plans for world domination, and when his Hot Dog army comes, its up to him to save it.

The film was first announced in October 2011. This film was originally planned as a direct-to-video release until DreamWorks decided to release the film in theaters worldwide. DreamWorks later confirmed the film on January 4, 2016.

It was theatrically released in the United States and Canada in 3D, IMAX, IMAX 3D, and Dolby Cinema on July 27, 2018, by Universal Pictures. The film received generally positive reviews, and proved to be a box office success, earning $468 million on a budget of $73 million., and it became the seventh highest-grossing 2018 animated film, with praise toward the cast and humor, and won the 2019 Kids' Choice Award for Favorite Animated Movie (which it tied with Incredibles 2).

This film along with Canterlot High 2: Rainbow Rocks, Cool Spot, Isle of Dogs, Mirai, Ralph Breaks the Internet, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, SpongeBob SquarePants & Star vs. The Forces of Evil: The Musical Movie! and Incredibles 2 were nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature in 2018, ultimately losing to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, SpongeBob SquarePants & Star vs. The Forces of Evil: The Musical Movie!, and Cool Spot.
