You’ve probably already seen at least one trailer for DreamWorks’ new ‘toon Penguins Of Madagascar, and a clip from the film’s opening sequence arrived last month. Now imagine what would happen if you mashed them both up? That’s right, utter anarchy the new promo from the film.
Get ready to experience both the first meeting of all four Penguins – Skipper (Tom McGrath), Kowalski (Chris Miller), Rico (John DiMaggio) and Private (Christopher Knights) – back in their younger days, and learn a little more about the animal espionage experts they’re currently assisting/annoying, the North Wind.
Together, these mismatched squads will have to tackle a mad octopus villain named Dave (John Malkovich), who appears to have something of a past with our flightless friends. The North Wind gang, meanwhile, are led by a wolf (Benedict Cumberbatch) whose name is classified. So everyone calls him “Classified." And yes, it appears that Bavarian bum-slapping dancing is also involved somehow…
With Werner Herzog, Peter Stomare, Annet Mahendru and Ken Jeong among the voice cast, Penguins Of Madagascar is out on December 5.
