Disney+ has released the first trailer for ‘Turner & Hooch‘, the reboot/continuation series of the original 80s movie, which premieres this July on the streaming service.
When an ambitious, buttoned-up US Marshal inherits a big unruly dog, he soon realizes the dog he didn’t want may be the partner he needs. ‘Turner & Hooch’ stars Josh Peck as Scott Turner, son of Detective Scott Turner portrayed by Tom Hanks in the 1989 film of the same name.
The series also stars Carra Patterson (‘The Arrangement’, ‘Straight Outta Compton’) as Jessica Baxter, Scott’s brave, street-smart partner; Brandon Jay McLaren (‘Firefly Lane’, ‘UnREAL’) as Xavier Wilson, a cool, enigmatic marine-turned-US Marshal; Anthony Ruivivar (‘American Horror Story’, ‘Banshee’) as Chief James Mendez, Scott’s boss with a secret soft spot for Scott’s new dog, Hooch; Lyndsy Fonseca (‘Agent Carter’, ‘How I Met Your Mother’) as Laura Turner, Scott’s sweet, animal-loving sister; Jeremy Maguire (‘Modern Family’) as Matthew Garland, Laura’s dog-loving son; and Vanessa Lengies (‘Glee’, ‘Second Chance’) as Erica Mouniere, the quirky head of the US Marshals dog training program.
Becca Tobin (‘Glee’) recurs as Brooke, Scott’s former flame, with Reginald VelJohnson (the ‘Die Hard’ franchise, ‘Hart of Dixie’) reprises his role as Mayor David Sutton, who was a detective in the original film. Five French Mastiffs also star as Hooch, Scott’s slobbery, loveable French Mastiff.
‘Turner & Hooch’ is a Disney+ original series produced by 20th Television. Matt Nix (‘Burn Notice’, ‘The Gifted’) is creator, executive producer and writer on the series. McG is an executive producer and directed the series premiere. Michael Horowitz, Robert Duncan McNeill and Mary Viola also serve as executive producers, and Josh Levy serves as co-executive producer.
‘Turner & Hooch‘ Season 1 premieres Wednesday, 21st July 2021 on Disney+ worldwide.
