2010 film by Brad Peyton
Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore (also known as Cats & Dogs 2 or Cats & Dogs 2: The Revenge of Kitty Galore) is a 2010 spy comedy film directed by Brad Peyton in his feature directorial debut, produced by Andrew Lazar and Polly Johnsen, and written by Ron J. Friedman and Steve Bencich based on the characters by John Requa and Glenn Ficarra. The film stars Chris O'Donnell, Jack McBrayer, Fred Armisen, and Paul Rodriguez with an ensemble voice cast of James Marsden, Nick Nolte, Christina Applegate, Katt Williams, Bette Midler, Neil Patrick Harris, Wallace Shawn, and Roger Moore, with Sean Hayes, Joe Pantoliano, and Michael Clarke Duncan reprising their roles from the first film. The film is a stand-alone sequel to the 2001 film Cats & Dogs, with more emphasis on its animal characters than the previous film.
In the film, former M.E.O.W.S. operative Kitty Galore is discovered to be executing an evil plot against the dogs and her cat comrades, forcing both groups of animals to team up and stop Kitty Galore from taking over the world. It premiered at the Grauman's Chinese Theatre on July 25, 2010, and was released on July 30 in the United States, by Warner Bros. Pictures. Unlike its predecessor, it received generally negative reviews from critics and was a box office failure, grossing $112.5 million on an $85 million budget.
