This spring, DreamWorks officially re-entered the 2022 animation `race` with a very special new work called The Bad Guys (original title: The Bad Guys).
1. The movie version opens up the `universe` of best-selling children’s books
This is the first time the essence of children’s writer Aaron Blabey has been brought to the big screen.
With more than 16 million copies sold by the end of 2021, The Bad Guys is no doubt one of the series that many children are interested in.
2. Fascinating story, `unbelievably` suitable for young audiences and families
The main group of characters of The Bad Guys includes Big Brother Wolf, Mr. Snake, Mr. Shark, Mr. Tiger Fish and Ms. Spider (codename Webs – `Silk`).
The Bad Guys tells about the adventures of a group of beastmen who `used to be bad guys`. It sounds like it wouldn’t be suitable for children, but in the end it turns out to be… unbelievably suitable!
In addition, the main plot of the film is not 100% mechanically adapted from the original, on the contrary, it collects the most quintessential details from the first 4 parts of the story, then conveyed from the creative perspective of DreamWorks.
Also according to actress Awkwafina (voice of Spider), The Bad Guys wants to bring to young audiences lessons about kindness, how to respect and recognize the contributions of others regardless of their appearance.
3. Guarantee from the `big man` in the animation industry
The Bad Guys is the first `shot` of animation giant DreamWorks in 2022. Present in the film market for nearly 25 years, DreamWorks has made the screen shake with a series of animated masterpieces.
The Villains is DreamWorks’ 42nd film and DreamWorks’ 8th film after becoming part of the `giant` Universal Pictures.
The Bad Guys officially premieres on March 25, 2022.
