Marmaduke is a 2022 animated comedy film directed by Mark Dippé, and co-directed by Phil Nibbelink, Youngki Lee, and Matt Whelan, based on the comic strip of the same name by Paul and Brad Anderson.

Phil, his wife, and their two kids Barbara and Billy live with their dog, a Great Dane by the name of Marmaduke.

Marmaduke takes a cannonball dive from the second floor of the family home into the backyard pool, releasing a tidal wave.

During the preliminary setup, Marmaduke encounters an Afghan Hound named Zeus, who entices him to eat prior to the competition, which results in him getting bloated.

Marmaduke encounters Zeus again at the competition along with many other dogs: little Welsh corgi Juan Pedro, beautiful pink poodle Shantrelle, and strong Staffordshire bull terrier Vinnie.

During the mid-credits scene, Zeus gets caught by security and is sent to the dog pound to get his fur shaved and re-grown, while his Henri and Philipe are put in jail.

On October 23, 2017, it was announced that a CGI Marmaduke film was in development, to be written by Byron Kavanagh and directed by Mark A.Z.
