‘The Secret Life of Pets’ – New footage released for Easter

// News



Illumination Entertainment have released more footage from their upcoming feature film The Secret Life of Pets, with a focus on Kevin Hart’s character Snowball to coincide with the Easter weekend:

As well as Hart the film also stars fellow comic talents Louis CK, Eric Stonestreet, Ellie Kemper and Albert Brooks. In a recent interview with Skwigly, the film’s director Chris Renaud championed the voice performances as one of the critical ingredients of the film’s success:

We really tried to get really top comedic talent as the driving force. Certainly in the case of our lead, Louis CK as Max or Eric Stonestreet as Duke and Kevin Hart as Snowball, certainly the ‘character’ of those actors really comes through in the animated performance of the characters themselves. So what’s nice is that the three personalities, as personified by those actors and within the character designs, really contrast with each other in a great way. You have the high energy of Kevin Hart next to the drier personality of a Louis CK, we think it creates a nice chemistry. Their personalities definitely shine through these animated characters.
