Get ready for a roaring good time, because the PAW Patrol is trading their pup tags for prehistoric gear. ShowtimeSpot has your exclusive first look at PAW Patrol 3: The Dino Movie, the next big-screen adventure for Ryder and his heroic canine crew. The film stomps into theaters on August 14, 2026, and promises to be the franchise's most epic outing yet.
The third theatrical installment follows the massive success of PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie, which grossed over $200 million worldwide. Now, the pups are heading to a tropical island where dinosaurs still roam. According to the official synopsis, after their ship gets caught in a mysterious storm, the PAW Patrol crash-lands on an uncharted island teeming with dinosaurs. There, they meet Rex, a pup who has been stranded for years and become a dino expert. But trouble brews when archrival Mayor Humdinger starts reckless mining, triggering a volcanic eruption that threatens all life on the island.
A Star-Studded Voice Cast Returns
The franchise continues to attract top talent. Returning voices include Carter Young as Marshall, Mckenna Grace as Skye, Henry Bolan as Ryder, and Ron Pardo as Mayor Humdinger. Newcomer Hayden Chemberlen voices Rex. The cast also features big names like Jennifer Hudson, Snoop Dogg, Paris Hilton, Bill Nye, Jameela Jamil, and Terry Crews. The teaser trailer, released earlier this year, even debuted new music from the Backstreet Boys.
This prehistoric twist comes as animated films dominate the box office. Recent hits like Inside Out 2 and Zootopia 2 have shattered records, proving that family-friendly adventures are a theatrical goldmine. The PAW Patrol franchise, which began as a Canadian TV series created by Keith Chapman, has grown into a global phenomenon since its first film in 2021.
