Actors Will Arnett and Natasha Lyonne are set to star in live-action family comedy "Show Dogs".

The voice cast also includes Ludacris, Stanley Tucci, Alan Cumming, Gabriel Iglesias, and Shaquille O'Neal, reported Variety.

Raja Gosnell, whose credits include "The Smurfs," "Beverly Hills Chihuahua," and "Scooby-Doo," is directing from a script by Max Botkin.

Shooting of the project began on November 28 at Pinewood Studio Wales in the United Kingdom.

Ludacris will voice a rugged, lone-wolf Rottweiler NYPD police dog partnered with Arnett. The two investigate the kidnapping of a baby panda by an underground network of illegal animal traders when they get a tip that the crime ring is planning to sell the panda at the prestigious Canini Invitational Dog Show.
 

The dog must undergo a makeover with the help of a seasoned trainer (Lyonne) - mud baths, ballet lessons, a Brazilian waxing - to go undercover in order to thwart the plot.
