Will Ferrell and Jamie Foxx are Strays in new trailer for R-rated canine comedy

July 27, 2023 by Amie Cranswick

Universal Pictures has released a new trailer and poster for Strays, the R-rated canine comedy from director Josh Greenbaum.

The film follows the adorable, yet naive Border Terrier Reggie (voiced by Will Ferrell) as he is abandoned by his owner Doug (Will Forte) and meets a foul-mouthed stray Boston Terrier named Bug (voiced by Jamie Foxx) who convinces him to see his owner for the heartless dirtbag he is and helps him plots revenge by taking away Doug’s most beloved appendage. Watch the trailer below…

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), a naïve, relentlessly optimistic Border Terrier, is abandoned on the mean city streets by his lowlife owner, Doug (Will Forte; The Last Man on Earth, Nebraska), Reggie 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 realizes he was in a toxic relationship and begins to see Doug for the heartless sleazeball that he is.

Determined to seek revenge, Reggie, Bug and Bug’s pals—Maggie (Isla Fisher; Now You See Me, Wedding Crashers), a smart Australian Shepherd who has been sidelined by her owner’s new puppy, and Hunter (Randall Park; Always Be My Maybe, Aquaman), an anxious Great Dane who’s stressed out by his work as an emotional support animal—together hatch a plan and embark on an epic adventure to help Reggie find his way home … and make Doug pay by biting off the appendage he loves the most. (Hint: It’s not his foot).

Strays features a cast that includes Will Ferrell, Jamie Foxx, Isla Fisher, Randall Park, Will Forte, Josh Gad, Harvey Guillén, Rob Riggle, Brett Gelman, Jamie Demetriou, and Sofia Vergara.

Strays arrives in cinemas on August 18th.
