Mexican comedian Eugenio Derbez will lend his voice to the upcoming “The Secret Life of Pets” version in Spanish. The funny animated film is set to show what our little furry creatures are really up to when we leave the house. Derbez will reportedly play the seemingly adorable bunny Snowball, who is in fact recruiting an army of abandoned pets (or as they call themselves the "Flushed Pets") to take revenge on those who live in a happy home with good owners.
Joining the actor are Colombian comedian Andrés López, as well as Argentine funny man Martín Campilongo, who will the dog characters of Max and Duke respectively.
Written by Brian Lynch, Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio, the animators of Illumination are going to show us what happens inside a busy Manhattan apartment building when the real day starts for pets; of course, that is when all the humans have left for work or school. This is when the pets start their own days; they hang out; switch out their pet food for human snacks and treats, sing, laugh, rub against furniture and just enjoy themselves. Just like every community, they have their leader too, the building’s top dog, Max (Louis C.K.), who’s world crumbles when his owner brings home a new addition to the family: Duke (Eric Stonestreet), a sloppy, massive mess of a mongrel with zero interpersonal skills.
When this reluctant canine duo finds themselves out on the mean streets of New York, they have to set aside their differences and unite against Snowball (Kevin Hart).
The English cast will also include comedians such as Jenny Slate, Lake Bell, Dana Carvey, Ellie Kemper, Hannibal Burress, Steve Coogan and Albert Brooks. Directed by Chris Renaud and brought to us by the creators of “Despicable Me” and its spinoff, “Minions,” the funny adventure is set to hit theatres in July.
