In New Rock Dog Trailer A Dog Follows His Dream To Be A Rock Star

Cats may have nine lives, so what about our canine friends, they were born to rock! Today Altitude Entertainment has released another UK trailer for their animated adventure Rock Dog. They say they can’t teach old dog new tricks what about a young dog that wants to be a rock star? Step forward Fleetwood Yak and the help of reclusive Cat musician called Angus, things might just come true…

For the Tibetan Mastiffs living on Snow Mountain, a dog’s life has a simple riff; Guard a peaceful village of wool-making sheep from the thuggish wolf Linnux (Lewis Black; Inside Out, The Aristocrats) and his rabid pack. To avoid distractions, Mastiff leader Khampa (J.K Simmons; Whiplash, Spider-Man) forbids all music from the mountain. But when Khampa’s son Bodi (Luke Wilson; Legally Blonde, Charlie’s Angels) discovers a radio dropped by a passing aeroplane, it takes just a few guitar licks for his fate to be sealed: Bodi wants to be a rock’n’roll star. Yet that means defying his father’s wishes, heading to the city and locating the legendary – and reclusive – musician Angus Scattergood (Eddie Izzard; Cars 2, Valkyrie), who needs to write a new song and fast.

If Bodi can put a band together, help Angus with his song, and defeat the wolves’ plot to take Snow Mountain, his life will be in tune. Body will become what he’s always dreamed of being: More than a dog…more than a rock god… he’ll be a ROCK DOG!

Sky Cinema, Altitude will be releasing Rock Dog, in UK and Irish cinemas from 16th June 2017.
