Based on the best-selling book series by Aaron Blabey, The Bad Guys centers around five best friends and master criminals: Mr. Wolf, Mr. Snake, Mr. Piranha, Mr. Shark, and Ms. Tarantula. Known around the world as the top gang in villainous activities, the unthinkable happens when the group gets taken down. In order to help free the heisting team from prison, Mr. Wolf strikes up a deal that would see them turning in their terrible ways to put out some good in the world. But there’s just one hangup, Mr. Wolf has no plans to actually keep his promise and instead just wants to fool those in charge in order to get back on the mean streets. Through their journey, the bad guys will learn, grow, and discover that they may not be that rough and tough after all.
