Greg Heffley is back in the third movie instalment of the 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid' franchise. This time he looks forward to an excellent summer break with his best friend Rowley. However, his vacation is set to be spoiled when his father is determined to use the time to bond with his teenage son. Greg decides to avoid the situation by lying that he has a job at a country club, but it looks like a disastrous break is still on the cards with a series of humiliating catastrophes including failed attempts at impressing girls at a very crowded poolside, slightly too terrifying rollercoaster rides and a calamitous camping expedition.
Adapted from the New York Times bestselling novel series by Jeff Kinney, 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days' follows on from the second film 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules' which sees Greg's parents' failed attempt at getting him and his brother Rodrick to bond, and the first movie which sees Greg managing to endure the troubles of middle school as a pre-teen. This brilliant family comedy is based on Kinney's third and fourth 'Wimpy Kid' books and directed by the BAFTA nominated David Bowers ('Flushed Away', 'Astro Boy'). It is set for release imminently on August 3rd 2012.
Starring: Zachary Gordon, Steve Zahn, Robert Capron, Devon Bostick, Rachael Harris, Grayson Russell and Karan Brar.
Director: David Bowers
