'Fixed' on Netflix: Plot, Cast, Release Date and Everything to Know About The Animated Comedy

Published 07/29/2025, 11:25 PM EDT

Forget fairy tales and moral lessons, Fixed is not here to teach children about friendship or sharing cookies. This animated feature from director Genndy Tartakovsky, best known for family-friendly titles like Hotel Transylvania and Unicorn: Warriors Eternal, flips the genre on its head. Instead of cuddly animals singing songs, viewers get a raunchy, no-holds-barred canine comedy packed with adult humor, explicit themes, and animated absurdity. Fixed is unapologetically wild, and its bark is just as wild as its bite, especially when it comes to its plot and cast.

The story’s outrageous premise, paired with unexpected voice talent, makes this adult animated comedy impossible to ignore.

Fixed will arrive on Netflix on August 13, carrying with it the five-time Emmy Award winner Genndy Tartakovsky. Unlike most animated releases, its origin is not rooted in fairy tales or studio boardrooms but in the lifelong bond between four high school friends. Tartakovsky aimed to bottle that unfiltered, absurd humor for the screen, and judging by the premise, viewers are in for something entirely different from traditional animated fare.

The canine chaos at the heart of Fixed

At the center of Fixed is Bull, a well-meaning mutt who receives devastating news: his owners plan to neuter him at sunrise. In a panic-fueled burst of determination, Bull rounds up his loyal crew of neighborhood strays for one last epic night of freedom. What follows is a chaos-filled mission to profess his love to Honey, the glamorous show dog next door, before the morning brings irreversible change and an unwelcome visit to the veterinarian.

All of it plays out against vibrant, exaggerated 2D animation and a tone inspired by irreverent classics like Anchorman and Bridesmaids, making Fixed a howling departure from formulaic animated fare. And let us not forget that the talented cast that made it possible.

The talented voices that fuel Fixed's animated chaos

The voice cast of Fixed is as bold as its storyline, led by Adam DeVine as Bull, a dog on a mission to preserve his identity before an unwanted surgery. Idris Elba lends effortless swagger as Rocco, the boxer who leads with confidence, while Bobby Moynihan delivers his signature charm as Lucky. Fred Armisen takes on Fetch, a dachshund obsessed with internet fame, and Kathryn Hahn voices Honey, Bull’s glamorous and, after revisions, equally raunchy love interest.

Additional vocal standouts include Beck Bennett as the uptight Sterling, Michelle Buteau as the delightfully blunt Molasses, and River Gallo as the smooth-talking Frankie. Grey DeLisle rounds out the cast as the grandmotherly Nana. Director Genndy Tartakovsky praises the ensemble’s comic instincts, calling them crucial to landing the film’s tone. With talent this sharp and humor this audacious, Fixed may well be making its way toward becoming one of Netflix’s best adult animated comedies.
