Trailer for PETS ON A TRAIN Promises a Fun, Wholesome Heist on Rails
Viva Pictures has released the official US trailer for Pets on a Train, a French animated adventure comedy that’s chugging its way into theaters this fall.
The film recently made its premiere at the 2025 Annecy Film Festival and already had a theatrical run in France, but it’s finally making its way stateside with a brand-new English dub.
In the energetic story, what starts as a petty swindle by a group of animal bandits spirals into a high-tech runaway train heist. Now it’s up to Falcon, a raccoon with a talent for thieving, and Rex, a by-the-book police dog, to rescue the animal passengers before things go completely off the rails.
Directed by Benoît Daffis and Jean-Christian Tassy, Pets on a Train brings together a fun ensemble of voice talent for its US release including Marc Weiner (Dora the Explorer) voices Falcon, while Sasha Toro (Backpack) brings the villainous badger Hans to life. Lisa Ortiz joins in as Leiya the ocelot.
While the tone clearly aims for younger audiences, it’s looks like an energetic, kid-friendly ride. As the trailer promises: “This Fall the ultimate thrill ride begins.” Pets on a Train arrives in US theaters October 17th, 2025.
