PAW Patrol 3 is getting bigger. 

With a plan set for a big-screen release, the franchise’s third movie has now cast two big names to add to the group of pups. Jennifer Hudson and Fortune Feimster are now a part of the PAW Patrol universe, as they were cast in the animated film.

Cal Brunker directed the first two films, which earned over $345 million at the global box office. Feimster and Hudson are joining McKenna Grace, who will resume her lead role as Skye.

Hudson has recently become an EGOT winner and has an extensive list of accomplishments in the entertainment industry. Feimster is a highly accomplished and well-known stand-up comedian, writer, and actor, with two Netflix comedy specials. 

Spin Master Entertainment’s PAW Patrol is one of the most successful series in kids’ television globally.

“Jennifer and Fortune are both exceptional talents, each bringing with them a global audience of devoted fans.” says Jennifer Dodge, President of Spin Master Entertainment “Their addition to the PAW Patrol 3 cast, along with the return of Mckenna, whose work in the film’s predecessor was instrumental to its success, will build on the exceptional storytelling for this beloved franchise. This dynamo trio will undoubtedly make this film a puptastic adventure for preschoolers and their families around the world.” 

The film is set to release in 2026.
