“Dogs have a real sense of family. So they rally around in the bad times and form a solid united entity.” Briarcliff Ent. has revealed the official US trailer for Luc Besson’s movie DogMan, which first premiered last year at the 2023 Venice Film Festival. This was supposed to open earlier in 2023, then they held it for the festival premiere, and it opened in Europe quickly after. “Wherever there is an unfortunate, God sends a dog.” DogMan tells the incredible story of a child – bruised by life – who will find his salvation through the love of his dogs. Caleb Landry Jones stars as its fragile yet resilient protagonist who bends societal rules as he makes his own way. The film has “an edgy, indie feel reminiscent of Besson’s debut feature Subway” and his other early films like The Big Blue, La Femme Nikita, & Leon. The cast also includes Christopher Denham, Marisa Berenson, Michael Garza, and Jojo T. Gibbs. This gets violent in the second half, turning into a vengeance film taking out the bad guys – with all of his dogs helping. I saw this in Venice and it’s good, though obviously quite cheesy + a bit insane, but it’s entertaining with lots of lovable doggies in it.
Here’s the new official US trailer (+ new poster) for Luc Besson’s DogMan, direct from YouTube:

Caleb Landry Jones stars as Douglas, a man who was abused as a child by his violent father and viciously thrown to dogs. Instead of attacking him, all the dogs came to protect him and became his allies. On a journey to heal from childhood trauma and physical injury, Douglas seeks to find his own path, even if it means bending societal rules, gender and going overboard with his love of dogs. DogMan is both written and directed by French filmmaker Luc Besson, director of the movies Subway, The Big Blue, Nikita, Léon: The Professional, The Fifth Element, The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc, Angel-A, Arthur and the Invisibles, Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazard, Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec, Arthur 3: The War of the Two Worlds, The Lady, The Family, Lucy, Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, and Anna previously. Produced by Virginie Besson-Silla. With music by Eric Serra. This initially premiered at the 2023 Venice Film Festival last year. Briarcliff Entertainment opens Besson’s DogMan movie in select US theaters starting March 29th, 2024, then expanding wider throughout April. Who wants to watch this?
