The film tells the incredible true story of Stubby, a stray dog who became a hero of the First World War after being adopted off the streets by an American Soldier. For performing numerous heroic feats beyond his small stature, Sgt. Stubby is still recognized today as the first dog promoted through combat and the most decorated canine in American history.

To tell Stubby’s tale, Fun Academy has enlisted the voice talents of Logan Lerman (PERCY JACKSON & THE OLYMPIANS) to voice Stubby’s owner and best friend Robert Conroy, as well as Academy Award® nominees Helena Bonham Carter (THE KING’S SPEECH, HARRY POTTER) and Gérard Depardieu (CYRANO DE BERGERAC, LIFE OF PI). The film also features an original score by award-winning composer Patrick Doyle (BRAVE, CINDERELLA, THOR).

Richard Lanni, director and producer of the film, commented on the announcement by saying, “Sgt. Stubby is close to the hearts of all who work on this exciting project. We eagerly await the reaction of our audience and the industry.”

SGT. STUBBY is produced by Fun Academy Media Group, Ltd. with animation by Technicolor company Mikros Image (CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS: THE FIRST EPIC MOVIE) from their studios in Paris and Montreal. Fun Academy will distribute the film throughout North America.

The film is slated to premiere on April 13, 2018. Follow Stubby and Conroy’s journey out of the history books and onto the big screen: www.facebook.com/StubbyMovie | www.facebook.com/moviepilotdotcom
