The most exciting animated characters, Skipper, Rico, Kowalski and Private are back on the big screen headlining their own film in Dreamworks Animation’s “Penguins of Madagascar.”
In the latest non-stop action caper of the year, the breakout stars of DreamWorks Animation’s hit “Madagascar” movies get their own big screen comedy-adventure, in which the stakes couldn’t be higher for the Penguins. Their globetrotting adventures take them to Antarctica, Venice, the desert, Shanghai, New York City and … Kentucky), during which they experience glory, engage in espionage, foil an evil scientist’s/octopus’ dastardly plot – and devour cheesy snacks – like no penguins have ever before.
In the following A&A, the greatest spy quartet of penguins share on how it was working on the movie and working together for almost a decade.
Q: After letting Alex, Marty, Melman and Gloria bask in the spotlight, how does it feel to finally be getting your own movie?
Skipper: Somebody’s filming us?! Rico, find those cameras and take them out! Pronto!
Q: Did any of them give you tips on how to handle the work and the fame?
Skipper: Who’s famous? You didn’t see anything. Next question! And I’m serious about those cameras, Rico!
Q: It looks like you again got to travel around the world making this film – what was your favorite place?
Skipper: Well, they always say there’s no place like home. But we’re from Antarctica, so forget that. Maybe Venice?
Private: We got to ride a gondola!
Skipper: We sure did, you adorable ragamuffin.
Q: It appears you’ve created quite the enemy in Dr Octavious Brine… what’s his problem?
Skipper: I know, right? Wait, was that an actual question? Oh. Ehh, who knows? I stop paying attention when villains go into the “blah blah here’s my story blah I’m so angry blah.” Wake me up when there’s something to rescue and/or eliminate.
Q: To help bring him down, you teamed up with professional spy Agent Classified. Who’s smarter?
Skipper: I’m gonna let Kowalski field this one. Say something smart, Kowalski.
Kowalsko: Covalent bonds, Planck’s constant, ziggurat, flagellum.
Skipper: I rest my case.
Q: Without giving too much away, what was the hardest part about trying to bring down the Dr?
Skipper: Well well, you’re just chock-full of questions today, aren’t you? WHO SENT YOU?! WHO ARE YOU WORKING FOR?! Rico, where are those cameras, man?!
Q: The four of you have been working together now for almost a decade – do you still get on?
Skipper: Of course! This is a brotherhood, forged in the fury of battle, and solidified over several frosty mugs of herring juice. Sure, sometimes Private gets a little gassy—
Private: I can’t believe you told him that!
Skipper: --but other than that, we’re good.
Q: You guys have always been popular – why do we love penguins so much?
Skipper: How about you stare into Private’s adorable face for 30 seconds and tell me if you still need to ask that question.
Q: Do those penguin documentaries really tell us all we need to know about you, or is there one secret you’re holding back?
Skipper: Ohhhh, yes. We’ve got one secret. A secret so big, it’ll blow your mind. Would you like to hear it? Well too bad, because Rico finally found your cameras. Take ‘em out, Rico!
Rico: KYAAAAHHHHH!!!!
