Planes: Fire & Rescue Flies Into Theaters Today!

      "When Others Fly Out, Heroes Fly In"

Flying into theater’s today, crop duster turned global racing champion Dusty Crophopper is back to once again fly into our hearts and teach us all how to believe in and live your dreams. 

 In this sequel to last summer’s hit movie Planes, we catch up with our beloved Dusty, voiced by the incredible talents of Dane Cook, who after his much lauded racing success now finds himself as one of more famous, if not the most famous, aeronautical racers in the world. However, all that high flying action has taken its toll on Dusty’s gears when it is discovered that Dusty’s damaged gearbox is a model that has long been out of production, and for the first time in his flying career, our favorite crop duster must the come to terms with the very real possibility that he may never race again.   

Along the way a new career opportunity for Dusty presents itself when it turns out that, in order to pass safety regulation standards, Propwash Junction Airport is in need of a second firefighting vehicle, to assist the elderly fire and rescue truck Mayday (Hal Holbrook). First, though, Dusty needs to get the proper certification from Blade Ranger (Ed Harris), a seasoned helicopter who heads an elite fire and rescue team at the Piston Peak national park. 

Joining Dusty along the way is veteran fire-and-rescue helicopter Blade Ranger (voice of Ed Harris) along with his courageous team, including spirited air tanker Dipper (voice of Julie Bowen), heavy-lift helicopter Windlifter (voice of Wes Studi), ex-military transport Cabbie (voice of Captain Dale Dye) and a lively bunch of brave all-terrain vehicles known as The Smokejumpers.

Together, the fearless team battles a massive wildfire and Dusty learns what it takes to become a true hero. Directed by Bobs Gannaway (“Secret of the Wings”) and produced by Ferrell Barron (“The Fox and the Hound 2”).  Does Dusty have what it takes to battle wildfires alongside the best of the best?  Find out today when  “Planes: Fire & Rescue” hits theaters in 3D today, July 18, 2014.
