Dog Man Is Coming Home to Peacock — And Our Family Couldn’t Be More Excited!
If your kids are anything like mine, Dog Man isn’t just a book — it’s a lifestyle. From Dav Pilkey’s colorful pages to backyard roleplay adventures, this half-dog, half-human hero has taken over countless households — and now, he’s headed straight for your living room!
DreamWorks Animation’s Dog Man, the wildly imaginative superhero comedy, will be streaming exclusively on Peacock starting May 30. After a strong run in theaters, this hilarious, heartwarming film is ready to be watched (and rewatched… and rewatched again) at home — complete with bonus content, including extended scenes and deleted moments you won’t want to miss.
The film brings to life the origin story fans know and love: when a loyal police dog and his human partner are injured in the line of duty, a wild surgery fuses them into one crime-fighting hero — Dog Man. From there, the action takes off as Dog Man faces off against his mischievous arch-nemesis, Petey the Cat (voiced by Pete Davidson), who’s cooking up chaos by cloning himself into a villainous kitten.
But there’s more heart to this story than you’d expect. In a surprising twist, Dog Man and the tiny kitten form a bond that turns enemies into something much more meaningful — showing that even the fiercest foes can find common ground through the power of family.
The all-star voice cast features Lil Rel Howery as the Chief, Isla Fisher, Lucas Hopkins Calderon, and the always-funny Ricky Gervais. Their performances bring even more fun and energy to this animated adventure.
In our home, Dog Man is already a huge deal. My kids have several of the books, and my son even got to see the movie in theaters with a friend for a birthday celebration. The moment we heard it was coming to Peacock, the countdown began — and I have a feeling this is going to be our go-to movie night pick for a long while.
So if you’re looking for a laugh-out-loud, heartwarming film the whole family can enjoy — or simply want to give your kids something they already love in a brand-new way — mark your calendars for May 30. Pop some popcorn, grab the Dog Man books off the shelf for a pre-movie read-along, and get ready for a superpowered good time.
Dog Man is about to take over your screen — and trust me, your kids are going to love every second.
