The trailer for 'The Bad Guys 2' showcases a globetrotting animated sequel with higher-stakes action and cinematic set pieces inspired by James Bond and 'Mission: Impossible.'
The plot follows the reformed animal gang as they are forced out of retirement for one last job by a new all-female villain group called 'The Bad Girls.'
New characters include a snow leopard (voiced by Natasha Lyonne), a boar (Maria Bakalova), and a raven (Danielle Brooks), each bringing unique dynamics to the story.
