I know. It's called Alistair.
~ Doug to Boog, when he refers to Alistair appearing behind his back.

Doug is the main antagonist of Sony Pictures Animation's 5th feature film Open Season 3, the third installment in the Open Season franchise. He is Alistair's former leader, boss and current best friend, Gisela and Giselita's former arch-nemesis, and Boog's former arch-rival.

He was voiced by Matthew J. Munn.

Biography[]

Doug's main goal is to escape from the Maslova Family Circus and into the wild, reminiscing on how he used to rule a wild life park as its only grizzly bear. When Boog ran into him, it provided him the perfect advantage. He and Boog switched places, and Doug told him that he would be back for him before sunset. Boog was soon told by Doug's best friend and henchman Alistair that Doug was just lying to escape.

Open Season 3 Doug Roaring at Boog's Best Friends

Doug roaring at Boog's best friends, shocking Gisela and Giselita.

Meanwhile, Doug made himself king of the forest and turned Boog's best friends into servants. However, Elliot, Giselle, and their children soon find out that he is an imposter. Doug is soon forced to tell them that Boog is at the circus, which is set to go to Russia. As the animals run to save Boog, Doug once again feels lonesome, and realizes his friendship with Alistair.

That night, Doug ultimately decides to redeem himself, reunites with Alistair (giving him a bear hug, accidentally suffocating him), and sincerely apologizes to Boog for tricking him. He explains that he now knows that he doesn't know what he has until he loses it. Doug's return also allows Ursa to leave as she previously felt that she couldn't because "a Russian circus with no bear is no circus at all." Suddenly, Doug and Alistair are called on for their next performance and they bid Boog and the others farewell before departing.

As the Maslova Family Circus is traveling back to Russia, Doug peeks out his cart window and happily asks Alistair if he is glad they are going back to Russia, to which he jubilantly agrees and says that he hopes he gets to see his girlfriend Carmen. Then Doug and Alistair proceed to sing along to "On the Road Again" as the cats join in.

Personality[]

In stark contrast to Boog's kind and gentle nature, Doug is characterized by his mean-spirited, arrogance and vanity, often asserting his control over others and displaying a short temper. His abusive tendencies and egotistical nature make him a difficult individual to be around, as he constantly seeks to assert his dominance through argumentative and bossy behavior. Doug can also be described as traitorous, as he prioritizes his own interests above all else, even if it means betraying those close to him. Despite his flaws, Doug maintains a complicated relationship with Alistair, occasionally showing annoyance towards him but ultimately valuing their friendship, albeit in a somewhat manipulative manner.

His manipulative and sly ways allowed him to convince Boog to take his place in the Maslova Family Circus, showcasing his persuasive nature. Additionally, his tyrannical behavior was evident in the mistreatment and abuse he inflicted upon Boog's friends, insisting on being referred to as the king of the jungle. However, towards the conclusion of the film, Doug pays a visit to Alistair and offers a heartfelt apology to Boog for deceiving him. He acknowledges that he only realized the true value of what he had after losing it, prompting a change towards a more compassionate and understanding demeanor.

Appearance[]

In brief, Doug is Boog's doppelganger, the only difference being his fur and voice.
