The Bad Guys Interview with Producers Damon Ross and Rebecca Huntley

After a lifetime of legendary heists, the notorious criminals Mr. Wolf, Mr. Snake, Mr. Piranha, Mr. Shark, and Ms. Tarantula are finally caught. However, if they want to avoid a prison sentence, the animal outlaws must pull off their most challenging con yet. AKA becoming model citizens. Under the tutelage of their mentor, Professor Marmalade, the dubious gang sets out to fool the world that they’re turning good.

The Bad Guys is Ocean’s 11 meets the animal world. It is packed with intrigue, action, and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments. This is one film the whole family will enjoy watching together. And, since it is based on a book series, there is potential for more films or a spin-off show, something Dreamworks is famous for doing with their films.

Rebecca and Damon were so fun to interview. We even set up a heist at Dreamworks, that totally worked! We really tried to find out if there would be any sequels. After all, Dreamworks is known for turning its hit movies into shows. They shared why they wanted to work on this project. And most importantly, what would be their Golden Dolphin? That question MAY have led to us stealing the heart-shaped stone. Just saying.

To hear the whole interview take a listen below.
