Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank - The first trailer

The feature film previously titled Blazing Samurai comes with the final title, Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank and the first trailer.

Inspired by the famous comedy Midday and a half on fire by Mel Brooks, the animal comedy is directed by Rob Minkoff (The Lion King director - 1994) together with animator Mark Koetsier and scripted by Ed Stone and Nate Hopper.

A hard-on-his-luck hound Hank (Michael Cera) finds himself in a town full of cats who need a hero to defend them from a ruthless villain's (Ricky Gervais) evil plot to wipe their village off the map. With help from a reluctant teacher (Samuel L. Jackson) to train him, our underdog must assume the role of town samurai and team up with the villagers to save the day. The only problem... cats hate dogs!

Other voices include Mel Brooks, George Takei, Aasif Mandvi, Gabriel Iglesias, Djimon Hounsou, Michelle Yeoh, Kylie Kuioka and Cathy Shim.

Animated at Cinesite, in Montreal and Vancouver studios, the film will arrive distributed by Paramount Pictures in theaters across North America on July 15th.
