The live-action film 'Tom & Jerry' also stars Chloë Grace Moretz, Michael Peña, Rob Delaney, Colin Jost and Ken Jeong in pivotal roles.
Warners Bros. Pictures has recently unveiled the trailer of the upcoming Tom & Jerry movie which is scheduled for a 2021 theatrical premiere. According to Variety, the titular characters are animated in similar styles like the original television show, and the film diverges from tradition with live actors and a real-world setting.
The film sees Chloe Grace Moretz starring as an event planner hired by a hotel to organise a wedding function, but she is also expected to get rid of a mouse Jerry from his recent residence which is within the building's walls. The new film has been written by Kevin Costello and is based in Joseph Barbera and William Hanna's classic Tom and Jerry.
Check out the trailer below:
The film revives the decades-old rivalry as Tom is enlisted to help remove Jerry from the premises before the date of the wedding arrives, reported Variety.
Talking about the premise, WB kids described it as "One of the most beloved rivalries in history is reignited when Jerry moves into New York City’s finest hotel on the eve of 'the wedding of the century', forcing the event’s desperate planner to hire Tom to get rid of him, in director Tim Story’s Tom & Jerry. The ensuing cat and mouse battle threatens to destroy her career, the wedding and possibly the hotel itself. But soon, an even bigger problem arises: a diabolically ambitious staffer conspiring against all three of them. An eye-popping blend of classic animation and live-action, Tom and Jerry’s new big-screen adventure stakes new ground for the iconic characters and forces them to do the unthinkable… work together to save the day."
Tom and Jerry's film become the latest of the Tom and Jerry projects with the first shots dating back to 1940. There are 164 animated shorts, several TV series, and many movies to the Tom and Jerry name.
