DreamWorks Animation has just released the official trailer for The Bad Guys 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the hit animated film. In this exciting follow-up, everyone’s favorite reformed felons are back—though they’re not exactly on the straight and narrow. The Bad Guys—Mr. Wolf, Mr. Snake, Ms. Tarantula, Mr. Shark, and Mr. Piranha—are struggling to find trust and acceptance in their new lives as "Good Guys" when they are pulled out of retirement for one final heist. This time, they’re forced to work with a new group of criminals: The Bad Girls—an all-female squad of thieves who complicate their plans at every turn.

The trailer hints at a thrilling, globe-trotting adventure filled with high-stakes action and plenty of hilarious moments. The lovable team of misfits find themselves hijacked into a daring heist, masterminded by the charismatic, and perhaps even more unpredictable, crew of the Bad Girls. As the trailer teases, The Bad Guys 2 will be packed with humor, heart, and more than a few jaw-dropping moments, making it a must-see for fans of the first film.

The film brings back the stellar cast from the original, including Sam Rockwell (Mr. Wolf), Marc Maron (Mr. Snake), Craig Robinson (Mr. Shark), Anthony Ramos (Mr. Piranha), and Awkwafina (Ms. Tarantula), with new voices joining the mix. Danielle Brooks, Maria Bakalova, Natasha Lyonne, and more will voice characters in this exciting sequel, promising fresh dynamics and even more laughs.

Directed by Pierre Perifel and co-directed by JP Sans, The Bad Guys 2 is adapted from the popular Bad Guys Scholastic book series by Aaron Blabey. With its signature blend of action, comedy, and heart, the film is sure to be another animated hit for DreamWorks Animation.
