Now, three years later, Illumination Entertainment (as well as Universal Pictures) and director Chris Renaud present a follow-up sequel adventure with the movie The Secret Life of Pets 2. In a nutshell, The Secret Life of Pets was met with rousing success, garnishing positive reviews from critics and moviegoers, while making a large splash at the box office (roughly $875 million) worldwide. Together, both Max and Duke quarrel and try to understand each other as they deal with Snowball, a white bunny, who is building an army of lost pets. The movie, which was directed by Chris Renaud and featured the voice talents of Louis C.K., Eric Stonestreet, Jenny Slate, Kevin Hart, and several others, centered around Max, a Jack Russell Terrier whose sublime pet life gets turned upside down when his owner brings home a loud and disruptive new dog (a large, brown, shaggy, and Newfoundland mix) named Duke as the newest member of their household. Back in 2016, Illumination Entertainment released The Secret Life of Pets, an animated feature film that sparked the idea of what animal pets do when their “owners” aren’t around.
