Robin Williams' final film, Absolutely Anything, will hit theaters Aug. 14 -- almost one year to the day after the actor's death.

The story follows a schoolteacher, played by Simon Pegg, who is given the gift of absolute power -- including bringing back the dead, willing himself into Mark Twain's physique and making his dog talk -- thanks to some aliens with lasers. If he uses them for evil, the world ends. No pressure.

Williams plays a talking dog, Dennis, and he just really wants some cookies.
