The film, which has already had a few canine-included screenings in venues like San Francisco’s The Roxie Theater and Denver’s Sie Film Center, has a star-studded cast that is vocally advocating for furry friends to have access to the movie as well. In an interview with the [_Hollywood Reporter_](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/isle-dogs-stars-jeff-goldblum-bill-murray-call-more-dog-friendly-screenings-wes-anderson-film-1096339)_,_ Bill Murray, who voices a dog named Boss, enthusiastically backed pooches in the theater. “I think it’s a very good idea. I think it’s a great idea, as a matter of fact,” Murray said. “I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of theaters had dog days. We have dog days at baseball parks, and it’s a huge hit. I think they should have dog days in the movie theater.” Jeff Goldblum, who also voices a pup in the film and was spotted hanging out with a pup at the New York premiere of the film, was in hearty agreement, even offering his services in case a dog had an unexpected accident. “I’ll come and clean up, too, if they make any mess,” he said. “Bring them in! We can’t get too close to dogs!” > [](https://twitter.com/rachmeetsworld/status/976884797959299072) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5211381/jeff-goldblum-bill-murray-want-more-dog-friendly-screenings-for-isle-of-dogs/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5211381/jeff-goldblum-bill-murray-want-more-dog-friendly-screenings-for-isle-of-dogs/"},"headline":"Jeff Goldblum and Bill Murray Want More Dog-Friendly Screenings for Isle of Dogs","datePublished":"2018-03-22T19:56:46.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:51:34.807Z","description":"\"Bring them in! \"","url":"https://time.com/5211381/jeff-goldblum-bill-murray-want-more-dog-friendly-screenings-for-isle-of-dogs/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt71db32216c17dd63/69892bac97cdff771e6b4bea/jeff-goldblum-puppy-isle-of-dogs.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt71db32216c17dd63/69892bac97cdff771e6b4bea/jeff-goldblum-puppy-isle-of-dogs.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"\"Isle Of Dogs\" Special Screening","caption":"\"Isle Of Dogs\" Special Screening","creditText":"Dia Dipasupil—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5211381/jeff-goldblum-bill-murray-want-more-dog-friendly-screenings-for-isle-of-dogs/","name":"Jeff Goldblum and Bill Murray Want More Dog-Friendly Screenings for Isle of Dogs"}}]}] ```
