An unplanned “Take Your Child to Work Day” meets wild Space Western action in My Dad the Bounty Hunter, the new Netflix CG-animated series from Academy Award winner Everett Downing (Hair Love) and Patrick Harpin (Hotel Transylvania 2 & 3): “a warp-speed adventure across the constellation of ups, downs and moments in between that shape family life.”
The teaser trailer launched today shows what happens when two crafty kids decide to tag along on their dad’s work trip, only for things to take an interstellar twist. My Dad the Bounty Hunter (10 x 22′) will premiere February 9, 2023 on Netflix.
Synopsis: My Dad the Bounty Hunter is an animated action-comedy series following close-knit siblings Lisa and Sean, who stow away on their dad’s latest work trip, hoping to finally get some quality time together. Little do they know Dad’s been keeping a secret from them — he’s actually the toughest bounty hunter in the galaxy!
Launched into the surprise space adventure of a lifetime, Lisa and Sean discover that their seemingly average dad’s job is anything but boring. Dodging dangerous aliens, robots and laser fights galore, family bonding time becomes much more than they bargained for as they try to help their dad in pursuit of his toughest fugitive yet. With his kids along for the ride, Dad must show up for them when they need it most — and they’d better make it home before Mom finds out!
