Three new clips from DreamWorks Animation’s forthcoming animated sequel Puss in Boots: The Last Wish have been revealed, featuring the new characters who will be joining the titular feline in his newest epic journey. The film is scheduled to arrive in theaters on December 21.
The first two Puss in Boots 2 clips feature Antonio Banderas’ Puss being forced into retirement after finding out that he’s down to his last life. As he becomes a house pet, he meets a hyperactive and over-curious dog named Perro, voiced by Harvey Guillén, who’s disguising himself as a cat. Meanwhile, the third clip (via IGN) show Florence Pugh’s Goldilocks arguing with Baby Bear.
Puss in Boots: The Last Wish is being co-directed by Joel Crawford and Januel Mercado, with Mark Swift producing. They previously all worked together on 2020’s The Croods: A New Age.
