The Story
FROM LEFT: Rhino (voice of Mark Walton), Bolt (voice of John Travolta)
Bolt (voiced by John Travolta) is the star of the biggest show in Hollywood. The only problem is, he the whole thing is real. When the super dog is accidentally shipped to New York City and separated from Penny (voiced by Miley Cyrus), his beloved co-star and owner, Bolt springs into action to find his way home. Together with his hilarious new sidekicks Rhino (voiced by Mark Walton) – Bolt’s #1 Fan – and a street-smart cat named Mittens (voiced by Susie Essman), Bolt sets off on an amazing journey where he discovers he doesn’t need super powers to be a hero.
