The books center on the adventures of George Beard (Kevin Hart) and Harold Hutchins (Thomas Middleditch), two imaginative friends who spend hours in their treehouse creating their own comic-books featuring a wacky superhero, Captain Underpants.
Principle Krupp is the meanest, sourest old principal in the whole history of Jerome Horwitz Elementary School. He hates laughter. Hates singing. He hates the sounds of children playing at recess. In fact, he hates children altogether!” And he hates George and Harold most of all.
George and Harold are goofy and mischievous, but they have a heart of gold. In their minds, Principal Krupp is not the person who should be heading the school.
