In Universal Pictures‘ animated film The Bad Guys, we follow several misunderstood reformed criminals attempting to turn a new leaf but bump into some disastrous results on their journey.

The delinquent animal crew featuring Mr. Wolf (Sam Rockwell), Mr. Snake (Marc Maron), Mr. Piranha (Anthony Ramos), Mr. Shark (Craig Robinson) and Ms. Tarantula (Awkwafina) are known for legendary heists but are finally caught when a job goes wrong. To avoid a prison sentence, the notorious animal outlaws have to make a change to become model citizens.

Mr. Wolf falls in love with being good while his partners cringe at the idea. Stuck between friendship and love, Mr. Wolf finds himself trying to impress his love interest, Diane Foxington (Zazie Beetz), while battling judgment from his friends.

Tiffany Fluffit (Lilly Singh) is the obsessive news reporter narrating the criminal’s every move. Under the advisory of their mentor, Professor Marmalade, the gang of friends set out to fool the world that they’re the good guys—or maybe they deceived themselves.

Shadow and Act recently spoke to the cast about the new film.
