Paramount Pictures recently released a new featurette on the movie's voice cast members, as the film opens exclusively in cinemas across the Philippines on March 16.
One of the leading actors is child star Iain Armitage, who voices PAW Patrol leader Chase. Chase is an ambitious German Shepherd police puppy. Despite his young age, Armitage has lots of credits and is arguably best known for his roles in Young Sheldon as Sheldon and Big Little Lies as Ziggy.

In the movie, the PAW Patrol is on a roll. When their biggest rival, Humdinger, becomes Mayor of nearby Adventure City and starts wreaking havoc, Ryder and everyone’s favorite heroic pups kick into high gear to face the challenge head on. While one pup must face his past in Adventure City, the team finds help from a new ally, the savvy dachshund Liberty. Together, armed with exciting new gadgets and gear, the PAW Patrol fights to save the citizens of Adventure City.
