The stars of Disney’s upcoming “Lady and the Tramp” remake hit the red carpet with the dogs they voice in the movie, and the photos are heartwarming.
Ahead of the film’s release on Disney’s new streaming service (called Disney Plus) on Tuesday, November 12, the cast stepped out for a screening of “Lady and the Tramp” at iPic Theater in New York on Tuesday.
The film’s star dogs, Monte (who plays Tramp) and Rose (Lady), were also in attendance. Monte is a terrier mix who was rescued from an animal shelter in Phoenix, Arizona and Rose is a Cocker Spaniel.

Here's a photo of the animals with the actors who voice them in the movie, Tessa Thompson (Lady) and Justin Theroux (Tramp).
At the event, Thompson said that she enjoyed doing press with dogs.
"It sort of makes me think I should just always have a dog, no matter what the movie is about," she told "Entertainment Tonight."
The "Avengers" actor shared additional photos and videos of Rose, who she called "a star," on her Instagram story.
Thompson, Theroux, and the dogs were joined by Walt Disney Company executive Kevin A. Mayer, actress Yvette Nicole Brown (Aunt Sarah), director Charlie Bean, producer Brigham Taylor, actor Adrian Martinez (Elliott), and actor F. Murray Abraham (Tony).
Theroux also brought along his own dog, Kuma, to be part of the press tour. She's a pit bull that he adopted in 2018 and has been by his side ever since.
The pair even recreated the movie's iconic spaghetti scene.
Earlier in the day, the actor documented his and Kuma's press tour experience. Theroux joked that his dog was "furious" about not being in the film.
Similar to the 1955 animated film, the upcoming live-action "Lady and the Tramp" will focus on two dogs with very different lifestyles. They end up going on an adventure together, which includes sharing a plate of spaghetti at a restaurant and falling in love.
"Lady and the Tramp" also stars Kiersey Clemons as Darling, Thomas Mann as Jim Dear, Janelle Monáe as the voice of Peg, and Sam Elliott as the voice of Trusty.
