Danny Trejo may be known as a tough villain on screen. However, he also has a kind side. His love for fairy tales led him to work as a voice actor in animation and the “Spy Kids” series. Now, he’s a voice of reason as he narrates Gracie & Pedro: Pets To the Rescue, which rescues dogs and cats trying to get home to their families.
The film also stars Susan Sarandon (Thelma & Louise), Bill Nighy (Love Actually), Brooke Shields (Blue Lagoon), Alicia Silverstone (Clueless), and Al Franken (Saturday Night Live). An all-star voice actor cast appears.
The official synopsis is as follows:
Gracie and Pedro, two beloved pets who don’t get along, are separated from their families during a cross-border journey and find themselves embroiled in an unexpected adventure. Stranded in a strange land, spoiled show dog Gracie and street-wise street cat Pedro must put aside their differences and rely on each other to find their way home. Along their journey, they meet colorful characters, face difficult obstacles, and ultimately discover a common determination and love for family.
