Strays arrives in theaters August 18.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Strays director Josh Greenbaum has opened up about how dog trainers got the movie's dog actors to enact R-rated scenes for the film. Strays is a comedy starring Will Ferrell as the voice of Reggie, a Border Terrier who is abandoned by his owner Doug . Joined by fellow stray dogs Bug , Maggie , and Hunter , Reggie sets out to get revenge on Doug for abandoning him.
I mean, there's multiple humping scenes. [Laughs] But that was an early moment of our shoot, where we literally had four dogs humping lawn ornaments. I think I yelled to the crew at one point, like, 'Yes, this is really our job. We're really doing this, everyone.' But that was another behavior where I said to the trainers, 'Is this trainable?' They said yes, and they figured out their different techniques of how to do it.
Everything To Expect From Strays Strays is an R-rated comedy spoof on talking dog movies like Homeward Bound. The inclusion of raunchy comedy like dogs humping lawn statues and trash underscores how the film is very much for an adult audience. Since the film is rated R, there's no telling what other kinds of comedic situations Strays will see its dog cast get into.
