TEAM DUSTY:
Dusty (Dane Cook)
Dusty is a plane with high hopes—literally. Crop duster by trade,
this single-prop plane sees himself soaring alongside his
high-flying heroes in an international race. The fact that he’s
not really built for competitive racing doesn’t deter him from
pursuing his dream—but his fear of heights just might. With a
little help from his friends—and a WWII vet with wisdom to
spare—Dusty takes off on an adventure of a lifetime, going
prop-to-prop with champions while daring to reach heights he
never imagined possible.
Skipper Riley (Stacy Keach)
A reclusive old Navy Corsair, Skipper was an ace flier and top
instructor of the esteemed Jolly Wrenches squadron until an
incident during a combat mission took him off the front lines and
left him grounded for life. These days, Skipper keeps to himself,
but his quiet existence is turned upside down when an ambitious
and persistent Dusty solicits Skipper’s aerial expertise—and gets
a few life lessons in the process. But Skipper—who’s never really
come to terms with his past—finds that he has a few things to
learn, too, and while coaching Dusty to fly faster and smarter,
the teacher becomes the student.
Leadbottom (Cedric the Entertainer)
Leadbottom is a puttering old biplane and a grumbling taskmaster,
a real “tank-half-empty” kind of guy. As the proprietor of
amulch, a special—albeit putrid—blend of s,
minerals, and mulch that works miracles when sprayed on crops,
Leadbottom has no time for Dusty’s far-fetched flights of fancy.
There are too many crops to spray and not enough hours in the day
to spray them. For Leadbottom, it’s work first, then … well, more
work.
Dottie (Teri Hatcher)
Dottie is a forklift who co-owns and operates Chug and Dottie’s
Fill ’n Fly service station. As Dusty’s practical and
say-it-like-it-is friend—not to mention his ace mechanic—Dottie
hopes to keep his high-flying hopes grounded in reality: Dusty
isn’t built to race and chasing his dream is downright dangerous.
No matter what he decides, however, Dottie will always have his
back.
Chug (Brad Garrett)
Fuel truck Chug is a guy’s guy. He works hard as co-owner of Chug
and Dottie’s Fill ’n Fly service station—and plays hard indulging
in his own fuel from time to time. He has a big personality and
is a bold supporter of Dusty’s high-flying endeavors. Indeed,
he’s not only Dusty’s buddy, he’s his coach and biggest fan. And
if Chug can’t help Dusty reach new heights, he’ll find someone
who can.
TEAM RIPSLINGER:
Ripslinger (Roger Craig Smith)
With more wins than he can count and an abundance of fans,
Ripslinger is wings-down the biggest name in air racing—and he
knows it. But despite sky’s-the-limit funding and
state-of-the-art equipment, the world champion still doesn’t play
fair—especially when it comes to a small-town plane with zero
racing experience. Dusty doesn’t belong in Ripslinger’s sport and
his mere presence makes the pro’s fuel boil. And if Dusty’s
inexperience doesn’t take him out of the race, Ripslinger’s vast
empire includes a couple of underhanded sidekicks to take care of
business.
Ned and Zed (Gabriel Iglesias)
Team Ripslinger’s bombastic racers Ned and Zed specialize in
sabotage. Lacking the skills to actually outrace the competition,
they simply eliminate it, propelling boss Ripslinger to victory
every single time. Zed, a rowdy and reckless flier, and Ned, a
strange bird himself, may not be the sharpest props in the
hangar, but they have figured out how to draft off Ripslinger’s
fame.
El Cupacabra (Carlos Alazraqui)
The intensely charming El Chupacabra is a legend in Mexico (just
ask him). Powered by his passion for racing (not to mention the
elusive Rochelle), this caped Casanova is anything but
low-key—his booming voice and charismatic presence are as big as
his oversized engine. His cohorts aren’t really sure what is
truth and what is delusion when it comes to El Chu, but one thing
is beyond doubt: he races with a whole lot of heart and more
dramatic flair than is recommended at high altitudes.
Rochelle (Julia Louis-Dreyfus)
Rochelle is a tough racer and the pride of the Great White North.
Always confident and capable, she got her start running mail to
small towns in Quebec, picking up home remedies for mechanical
maladies along the way. She also developed a knack for fast
travel that ultimately inspired her to give air racing a try.
Rochelle never looked back (this competitive contender doesn’t
need to). She is relentlessly pursued by charmer El Chupacabra,
but steadfast Rochelle is much too focused on winning the race to
return his affections.
Bulldog (John Cleese)
Bulldog has been racing longer than every other racer on the
circuit. As the oldest and arguably wisest, he remembers a time
before GPS, when real racers trusted their gyros and navigated by
the stars. When it comes to racing, it boils down to two
qualities, says Bulldog: good flying and sportsmanship. Period.
While the competition secretly wonders if the aging plane is past
his prime, he flies his way onto the leader board again and
again, proving that this Bulldog has lost none of his bite.
Ishani (Priyanka Chopra)
The reigning Pan-Asian champion from India, Ishani is easy on the
eyes, but ruthless in the skies. Thanks to her high-speed
competitiveness and notable talent, she has amassed more than a
billion loyal fans—including one rookie racer who turns to her
for guidance. Exotic and mysterious, Ishani is full of surprises,
but always has her eye on the prize.
