Disney+ | The Producer's Channel

Animal lovers, get ready for a documentary that will make you laugh, cry, and hug your furry (or feathered!) friends a little tighter. Disney+ has just revealed the official trailer and key art for Pets, a heartwarming documentary premiering April 11—fittingly on National Pet Day.

From Disney Branded Television and Imagine Documentaries, Pets is directed by Bryce Dallas Howard (The Mandalorian), who takes audiences on an uplifting journey into the extraordinary relationships between animals and their humans across the globe. Whether you’re a lifelong pet owner or just love a good animal story, this film promises moments of joy, tenderness, and pure, unfiltered love.

A Personal Passion Project for Bryce Dallas Howard

Following her acclaimed 2019 documentary Dads, Howard brings her signature warmth and curiosity to a subject close to her heart—our deep, often wordless connections with pets.

“Directing a documentary about the relationship between pets and their people has been a dream for years,” says Howard. “There’s something about these intuitive bonds, full of mischief and love, that feel like magic. And pet videos? They tap into such pure innocence and happiness, the kind of laughter that catches you off guard and reminds you why we love them so much.”

A Celebration of Love, Loss, and Licks

Pets goes beyond just cute moments (though expect plenty of those!). The documentary showcases a diverse range of stories—from everyday pet parents to dedicated animal rescuers—spotlighting the deep, irreplaceable bonds they share with their dogs, cats, pigs, goats, and even birds of prey. Blending touching interviews, archival footage, viral pet videos, and unforgettable real-life moments, Pets is a tribute to the creatures who bring us endless love, comfort, and joy.

Meet the Team Behind Pets

This original Disney+ film is produced by Imagine Documentaries, the team behind the Emmy® Award-winning Jim Henson Idea Man and the inspiring docuseries Harlem Ice. Producers include Sara Bernstein, Justin Wilkes, Meredith Kaulfers, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Elisabeth Jamison, with Brian Grazer and Ron Howard serving as executive producers.
