New Trailer for Disney+ Series DUG DAYS Reunites Dug, Russell, Carl, and Squirrel From Pixar's UP
A new trailer has been released for the Disney+ series Dug Days that consists of five shorts that “follow the humorous misadventures of Dug, the lovable dog from Disney and Pixar’s Oscar®-winning feature film Up whose high-tech collar translates his thoughts into speech.” The series and trailer reunites Up characters Dug, Russell, Carl, and of course, the always elusive squirrel.
Bob Peterson, the voice of Dug then and now, wrote and directed the new shorts, and gave the following quote about the project:
“Dug is pure of heart—he’s a good soul. I think people enjoy that part of Dug,” says Peterson. “Plus, people love their dogs. We’ve gone to great lengths to include truth in dog behavior, so they see their own dogs in Dug.”
Coming up with new adventures for Dug was not a problem for Peterson, who kept top of mind the idea that this is Dug’s first time out of Paradise Falls.
“Everything is new, and he’s excited about all of it,” he says. “But the smallest things can distract Dug, never mind an actual squirrel.”
This looks like a really cute series of shorts that any fan of Up will enjoy. Check out the trailer below, and watch all five episodes of Dug Days on Disney+ on September 1st.
