Strays (2023)
Gather your pack for an R-rated comedy with bite.
They say a dog is a man’s best friend, but what if the man is a total dirtbag? In that case, it might be time for some sweet revenge, doggy style…
When Reggie (Will Ferrell) is abandoned on the mean city streets by his lowlife owner, Doug (Will Forte), the naïve Border Terrier is certain that his beloved owner would never leave him on purpose. But once Reggie falls in with a fast-talking, foul-mouthed Boston Terrier named Bug (Oscar winner Jamie Foxx), a stray who loves his freedom and believes that owners are for suckers, Reggie finally realises he was in a toxic relationship and begins to see Doug for the heartless sleazeball that he is.
A subversion of the dog movies we know and love, Strays features a powerhouse comedic supporting cast, including Grammy winner Josh Gad (Frozen), Critics Choice nominee Harvey Guillén (What We Do In The Shadows), Emmy nominees Rob Riggle (The Hangover) and Sofia Vergara (Modern Family), and Screen Actors Guild nominee Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers).
