“#’Turner and Hooch’ series<\/a> pays homage to original<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

Josh Peck hadn\u2019t seen the 1989 Tom Hanks movie \u201cTurner and Hooch\u201d before landing the role on Disney+ <\/a>series of the same name, premiering July 21.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI had seen bits and pieces, and when I got the audition, I watched the whole thing,\u201d Peck, 34, told The Post. \u201cAnd then I immedia<\/a>tely understood what was so lovable about it. That era between \u201985 and \u201995 was the gateway to movies like \u2018The Sandlot\u2019 and \u2018The Goonies.\u2019 Great family movies. I like the idea that we were paying homage to the original while also creating a new world.\u201d<\/p>\n

A continuation of the film, \u201cTurner and Hooch\u201d is set after Hanks\u2019 character has died offscreen. The comedy follows his adult son, Scott Turner Jr. (Peck), an ambitious and uptight U.S. Marshal who inherits an unruly French Mastiff from his late father, throwing his carefully organized life into disarray.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Peck\u2019s

The dog makes a mess of his apartment, interrupts his fieldwork with partner Jessica Baxter (Carra Patterson) and puts him in the path of a new love interest, Erica (Vanessa Lengies), who\u2019s a dog trainer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As it turns out, Peck\u2019s canine co-star was actually five different dogs, he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s Opie, Hammer, Sid, Arnie and Mimi. And they\u2019re all talented in their own ways. Opie was our elder statesman, an older dog, so he had a chill way about him. Hammer would pull my arm out of its socket because he only had one speed, and that was \u2018Rip Josh across the scene\u2019 at all times. And then there was Mimi, our only female dog, who was our super-specialist. When we needed a dog to jump high, she was the one we called in. It was like having a team \u2014\u00a0 you called in your specialist.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since Peck has made his career doing family fare such as Nickelodeon\u2019s \u201cThe Amanda Show\u201d and \u201cDrake and Josh\u201d as well as the \u201cIce Age\u201d movies, \u201cTurner and Hooch\u201d felt like a natural fit, he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI was looking for something that was similar to what I grew up doing, but also elevated. This allowed me to do the kind of broad physical comedy that is my greatest joy while also adding in certain elements of things that I wasn\u2019t used to doing \u2014 like looking like a guy that could save you as a U.S. Marshal.\u201d<\/p>\n

Peck\u2019s penchant for programming geared towards family audiences was just how the roles came to him at first, but now it\u2019s become what he deliberately seeks out.<\/p>\n

\u201cNaturally, anything you do as a child and in your teens, you kind of want to rebel against, which I did in my early 20s. I\u2019ll always want to do things that challenge me. But also, the beautiful thing that comes from your 30s is embracing the things that come naturally to you. And if you can bring joy to a family, that\u2019s kind of a superpower. It\u2019s a great skill, and it\u2019s something that I\u2019m honored to have a little bit of.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for Hanks himself, Peck has not discussed the show with him, but they have met.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhatever Mr. Hanks wants to do, I\u2019m down to clown. If he ever wanted to be on the show \u2014 granted, his character is deceased, but we could do flashbacks. <\/p>\n

\u201cI actually got to meet him once when I was doing the show [\u2018Grandfathered\u2019] with John Stamos, he invited me to his birthday. And of course, Tom Hanks was there, because who else would be there? He was so sweet and made a point to introduce himself to me and my wife. He was so gracious and generous. My interactions with him have been exactly as you would imagine.\u201d\u00a0\n <\/p><\/div>\n
