“George and Harold Were Usually Responsible Kids. Whenever Anything Bad Happened, George and Harold Were Usually Responsible.”
“George and Harold were usually responsible kids. Whenever anything bad happened, George and Harold were usually responsible.” ― Dav Pilkey, The Adventures of Captain Underpants DreamWorks Animation presents CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS: THE FIRST EPIC MOVIE, a hilarious and zany animated feature based on the best-selling author and illustrator Dav Pilkey’s beloved Captain Underpants book series. The film centers on the friendship between two creative and mischievous fourth-grade boys, who accidentally turn their mean principal into Captain Underpants, a bumbling superhero of their own creation. Directed by David Soren, the film’s star-studded voice cast includes Kevin Hart, Ed Helms, Nick Kroll, Thomas Middleditch, Jordan Peele, and Kristen Schaal. The first book of Dav Pilkey’s 12 book series was published in 1997. The series has been translated into 20 languages and has sold 80 million books worldwide. The books center on the adventures of George Beard (Kevin Hart) and Harold Hutchins (Thomas Middleditch), two imaginative friends who spend hours in their treehouse creating their own comic-books featuring a wacky superhero, Captain Underpants. Then one day, when their mean principal threatens to break up the friends into separate classes, they accidentally hypnotize him and turn him into Captain Underpants (Ed Helms). Kids all over the world have been delighted by the simple and expressive illustrations, the offbeat humor, and the clever plotlines of the books, while parents love the fact that the books inspired their children to read more. The film, which is DreamWorks Animation’s 35th feature project, is based on the first four books in Pilkey’s best-selling series. -
