Chris Pratt voices the world-famous, Monday-hating, lasagna-loving indoor cat, about to have a wild outdoor adventure when the 3DCG film pounces onto theaters May 24, 2024.
Our day just got a whole lot better. Sony has finally dropped a trailer and first look images for the upcoming 3DCG feature The Garfield Movie.
Garfield (voiced by Chris Pratt), the world-famous, Monday-hating, lasagna-loving indoor cat, is about to have a wild outdoor adventure! After an unexpected reunion with his long-lost father – scruffy street cat Vic (voiced by Samuel L. Jackson) – Garfield and his canine friend Odie are forced from their perfectly pampered life into joining Vic in a hilarious, high-stakes heist.
Although the franchise has remained popular since it first appeared in newspaper comic sections in 1978, Garfield only touts two live action/CGI feature films, and the franchise has remained off the big screen since the second film, A Tale of Two Kitties, premiered in 2006. The upcoming Alcon Entertainment offering will be the first fully animated theatrical project starring the lasagna-obsessed kitty.
Mark Dindal directs from a screenplay by Paul A. Kaplan & Mark Torgove and David Reynolds. Garfield comic strip creator Jim Davis will serve as an executive producer on the film alongside Bridget McMeel, David Reynolds, Scott Parish, Carl Rogers, Simon Hedges, Chris Pflug, Louis Koo, Steve Sarowitz, Justin Baldwin, and Peter Luo. John Cohen (Despicable Me) and Steven P. Wegner (Dolphin Tale 2) will produce along with Andrew Kosove and Broderick Johnson. DNEG Animation will animate and produce the film, with CEO Namit Malhotra and President Tom Jacomb serving as producers.
