Is there a post-credit scene in 'Bad Guys 2'?
After the Bad Guys became Good Guys in the first movie, the crew of animals struggles to find respectable, non-criminal jobs. That's when Kitty Kat (Danielle Brooks) and her group of all-female criminals asks the Good Guys to come out of retirement for "one last job."
Fans of the franchise might be curious if there is a post-credit scene for The Bad Guys 2 and whether they should stick around after the credits roll.
So, is there a post-credit scene? Yes!
WARNING: Spoilers for The Bad Guys 2 to follow!
The post-credit scene revolves around Professor Marmalade (Ayoade) and potentially setting up future Bad Guys sequels. Marmalade is slung into space in his limo by the girl gang at the end of The Bad Guys 2, but it's revealed that it's no regular limo. Instead, it converts into a space ship and takes Marmalade to safety to live another day as a dastardly villain.
While this development of Marmalade maybe being an alien species may surprise some fans, it does follow his storyline from the book series that the movies are adapted from.
The Bad Guys 2 is in theaters now.

Sam Rockwell recalls bizarre 'ER' audition that cost him Noah Wyle's role: 'I thought I nailed it'
Safe to say that Rockwell will not be seeing any patients any time soon. Celebrities — they flop just like the rest of us! Sam Rockwell proved just how relatable he can be during a recent roundtable discussion on Entertainment Tonight while promoting his latest animated feature, The Bad Guys 2. When Rockwell and his costars Awkwafina, Anthony Ramos, and Marc Maron were asked to share early career auditions they "likely bombed," Rockwell wasted no time revealing that he had auditioned for a role on ER that didn't go very well. The Oscar winner explained that he came in to audition for the part of third-year medical student John Carter, but likely freaked out producers with his choice of attire. "I came with a lab coat and a hypodermic [needle]. But not the needle part, just the plastic part," the actor recalled to the laughter of his costars. The Iron Man 2 star admitted that he "thought I nailed it," but realized the producers were not as enthused. "It's almost like I brought a gun to an audition," Rockwell quipped. "They were looking at me with this hypodermic thing... There was no needle! Just to be clear. I'm not that crazy." Still, he didn't land the gig. The role ultimately went to Noah Wyle, who played Carter as he worked his way up from med student to attending. He departed as a series regular after 11 seasons of the acclaimed drama's 15-season run. During his tenure on NBC's Must-See TV staple, Wyle earned five consecutive Emmy nominations for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series from 1995 through 1999. Last month, Wyle earned his first Emmy nomination in 26 years for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama for his role as Dr. Michael "Robby" Robinavitch on HBO Max's The Pitt. It's the first ever nomination in the category for the star and executive producer, who faces Sterling K. Brown (Paradise), Gary Oldman (Slow Horses), Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us), and Adam Scott (Severance) in the category. Coincidently, Rockwell also nabbed an Emmy nod this year. He is up for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for his role as Frank on The White Lotus season 3. Rockwell joined the show midseason to deliver a jaw-dropping, sexually charged monologue, ultimately playing a significant part in the evolution of Walton Goggins' character, Rick, Frank's close buddy. "Sam is one of my best friends," Goggins told Entertainment Weekly following Rockwell's surprise appearance on the series. "I was nervous that Sam was going to do it, and relieved that Sam was going to do it." "We know each other's ticks, and he's my hero," he explained. "I don't want to let him down. But I want to play with him. And two minutes into the first conversation we had, it was like, 'Ohhhh, okay, now we can go anywhere, now we can do anything.' It was the best time that I had really working on all of The White Lotus, working with him and those scenes."Now Wyle and Rockwell, the Dr. Carter that never was, have the chance to do the funniest thing when the 77th Emmy Awards, which will be hosted by Nate Bargatze, air Sunday, Sept. 14 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on ABC.

‘The Bad Guys 2' Cast on Revisiting Their Characters and Director Talks Possible Third Movie
At the recent world premiere of 'The Bad Guys 2' in Los Angeles, franchise star Craig Robinson expressed his excitement revisiting his character for a sequel, as did several of his cast members and directors. 'I loved it because you have the confidence with it being the second one,' Robinson said. 'They gave me some more crazy stuff to do. It was so much fun and passionate. It's contagious. They're amazing to work with alongside producer Damon [Ross] and directors JP [Sans] and Pierre [Perifel]. I had a ball.' More from Variety Box Office: 'Fantastic Four' Craters by 66% in Second Weekend, 'Naked Gun' Debuts to $17 Million 'Bad Guys 2' Director on Spoofing Elon Musk's SpaceX and How the Cold Open Was Influenced by 'Skyfall' and 'Mission: Impossible' Marc Maron on 'The Bad Guys 2,' His Reaction to Colbert's 'Late Show' Being Canceled and Why Barack Obama Is His Dream Pick for Final 'WTF' Guest Robinson voices Mr. Shark, who is a part of a group of ex-convicts determined to be good as they reenter society. 'The Office' star recently made headlines for his so-called 'retirement' stunt for his new marketing campaign with AT&T. When asked if he still had to clear up that he's not quitting comedy, Robinson told Variety, 'Yes, but it's all good. It was a troll move, but it was nice to see some people care.' Awkwafina said she has always been a fan of her character, Ms. Tarantula, since the first film. 'It's great to kind of revisit a character from a movie that you love,' she said. 'It's cool being back in a situation where you never thought you would be back again with the same people, and everyone gets along.' The premiere was held at the TCL Chinese Theater in Los Angeles, where Sam Rockwell pulled off a stunt by arriving to the event in a black vehicle reminiscent of his character's getaway car in the animated film before he was cuffed by two police officers before stepping onto the orange carpet. Danielle Brooks bonded with Rockwell in their recording sessions as she voiced Kitty Kat, the snow leopard ringleader of the newly introduced criminal group Bad Girls. 'I got to be in the booth with Sam, which never really happens,' Brooks said. 'That was a lot of fun. He reminded me to loosen up with the script. We did a lot of improv together.' Rounding up the Bad Girls are Bulgarian wild boar Pigtail, which was voiced by Maria Bakalova and Natasha Lyonne as the wry raven Doom (aka Susan). In the first film, the Bad Guys turn bad to good. 'The Bad Guys 2' picks up with the ex-convicts trying to reinvent themselves. Struggling to find socially acceptable jobs outside of their traditional high-stakes operations, they suddenly find themselves framed for a crime they didn't commit and forced by the Bad Girls to do one last heist. The returning cast members include Rockwell as Mr. Wolf, Marc Maron as Mr. Snake, Robinson as Mr. Shark, Anthony Ramos as Mr. Piranha, Awkwafina as Ms. Tarantula and Alex Borstein as the police commissioner. The co-director, JP Sans, named Lyonne as having one of the best impromptu moments. 'There was a scene with her and Marc where they're opening up a safe, but they're also talking about the romanticness of it,' he said. We told Natasha to go wild, and she went wild a little too much, where we could not use the stuff that she said. It was amazing and really funny.' For the director Pierre Perifel, one of the biggest challenges with doing the sequel was executing the same quality that audiences enjoyed from the first film. 'When you have the opportunity to make a sequel from a movie that people reacted well to, the challenge was, 'Is there a way I can do it again? Am I going to be successful at doing at least a good job with the same quality or better? Sequels are notoriously complicated to make,' he explained. 'That's the pressure that we're facing. We had to get out of our way and embrace what was there for us so that the movie and story would develop itself.' Perifel also spoke about the hopes of a third film, describing a potential 'sci-fi and action' direction. 'There's definitely conversation,' he said. 'We've been chatting among ourselves out of sheer passion about potentially making a third one. We have ideas and are excited because this is the world we want to play in. It's so fun. Now, is it going to happen? That's a different question, because it's all tied up to much more than just us.' 'Bad Guys 2' is now in theaters.

"The Fantastic Four: First Steps" holds its lead atop the box office
LOS ANGELES -- LOS ANGELES (AP) — Marvel's first family stumbled in theaters in its second weekend, but still held on to the top spot at the box office. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' earned $40 million from 4,125 North American theaters, a 66% drop from a healthy $117.6 million debut. The film was accompanied by comedies 'The Bad Guys 2' and 'The Naked Gun" in the top three box office rankings. The superhero movie dipped significantly more than Marvel's previous film, 'Thunderbolts,' which took a 55% dive in its second weekend. 'First Steps' is the last major blockbuster of the summer. It added nearly $40 million internationally in its second weekend, bringing thefilm's global total to $369 million. The movie's box office drop off was surprising given its strong reviews, said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for the data firm Comscore. Though the movie's debut weekend may have given box office results a strong push toward the $4 billion summer benchmark, August is off to a slow start, he said. 'It's a tough lift, but we might be able to get there. It really means that all the films are gonna have to stand on their own,' Dergarabedian said. 'It's gonna be about getting great reviews, having that staying power, that longevity in the marketplace.' Newcomer comedy 'The Bad Guys 2' earned second place at the box office this weekend, with $22 million from 3,852 North American theaters. That was on par with projections and also in line with the first movie in the series, which brought in $23 million in 2022. Paramount's slapstick comedy, 'The Naked Gun,' also in its debut weekend, snagged the third box office spot, earning $17 million from 3,344 locations. Jim Orr, president of domestic distribution for Universal Pictures, said the solid debut for 'The Bad Guys 2,' coupled with strong audience reaction scores, 'should point to a very long, very successful run through not only the rest of the summer, but really, I think into the fall." James Gunn's 'Superman,' which opened four weekends ago and already crossed $550 million globally, earned $13.8 million domestically this weekend, taking the fourth spot. 'Jurassic World Rebirth' followed with $8.7 million. The horror movie 'Together' had a strong debut weekend, coming in at sixth place and earning $6.8 million domestically, proof that August is a month for edgier and off-beat films, Dergarabedian said. 'That's what this month is about. It's not just about box office," Dergarabedian said. "It's also about providing really interesting, rewarding movie-going experiences for audiences.' Dergarabedian said he expects highly-anticipated movies hitting theaters in the next few weeks — including 'Freakier Friday,' and Zach Cregger's horror movie 'Weapons' — to give August a needed boost. The box office is currently up 9.5% from last year. With final domestic figures being released Monday, this list factors in the estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Comscore: 1. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps," $40 million. 2. 'The Bad Guys 2,' $22.2 million. 3. 'The Naked Gun,' $17 million. 4. 'Superman,' $13.8 million. 5. 'Jurassic World Rebirth,' $8.7 million. 6. 'Together,' $6.8 million. 7. 'F1: The Movie,' $4.1 million. 8. 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' $2.7 million. 9. 'Smurfs,' $1.8 million. 10. 'How to Train Your Dragon,' $1.4 million.
