They're on a roll...and they're coming to the big screen!
The beloved PAW Patrol cartoon pups are making their big screen debut this August, and this time Chase, Marshall, Sky, Rubble, Rocky and Zuma will be joined by some serious star power— Marsai Martin, Tyler Perry, Kim Kardashian, Jimmy Kimmel, Randall Park, Yara Shahidi, Ron Pardo and Dax Shepard are all slated to make puptastic cameos.
The main Patrol crew in the film—which was directed by Cal Brunker, and co-written by Brunker, his filmmaking partner Bob Barlen, along with Billy Frolick—will be voiced by their original TV show cast members, with the exception of Chase, who will be voiced by Young Sheldon's Iain Armitage. The film follows the adventures of the pups as they fight to save the citizens of nearby Adventure City from their terrible mayor, Mayor Humdinger — and make new allies (and few kitty enemies!) along the way.
PEOPLE has unveiled a pup-tastic sneak at the Patrol and their new friends, who are all "Ready for big screen action, sir!"
