The cast list brings back every original core member and adds four new names. Here’s who is returning and who is stepping in.

What new characters appear in The Bad Guys 2?

Beyond the returning lineup, several new names have surfaced, though some roles remain unconfirmed.

The mysterious bird

A bird character appears in promotional material, but no voice actor has been attached yet. Fans on DreamWorks Wiki (fan wiki) have speculated it could be a minor role or part of the Bad Girls team.

Susan, the governor, Kitty Kat, and Doom

• Kitty Kat (voiced by Danielle Brooks) is confirmed as the Bad Girls’ leader (DreamWorks Animation (official YouTube))
• Doom (voiced by Natasha Lyonne) is a raven with deceptive talents – a likely foil for the crew (DreamWorks Animation (official YouTube))
• Susan and the governor are mentioned in search data but absent from any official cast list; their existence is unverified.

Are there any trailers or official images for The Bad Guys 2?

Trailer release status

DreamWorks released the first trailer on its official YouTube channel (film studio) in April 2025. The trailer confirms the August 1 release date and shows brief glimpses of the Bad Girls.

Where to find official pictures

Still images and character posters are available on the DreamWorks website and the Rotten Tomatoes (film database) cast page, though many roles are not visually distinguished yet.

The catch: without an official full cast breakdown from DreamWorks, some new characters (Susan, governor, the bird) remain speculative. Fans should treat fan wikis as provisional until studio confirmation.

The trade-off: studios often hold back character details to preserve plot surprises. For now, the confirmed cast is strong, but the new Bad Girls remain the biggest unknown – and potentially the sequel’s biggest draw.

For those curious about the full lineup, a complete list of voice actors for The Bad Guys 2 is already available online.

Frequently asked questions

For viewers who fell in love with the first film’s banter, the same core voices are back. But the sequel’s identity hinges on how the new Bad Girls fit into the heist world. If DreamWorks balances the ensemble as well as in 2022, August 1 will be a satisfying return. If the new characters dominate without grounding, the film risks losing the tight-knit group dynamic that made the original click.
