Believe it or not. The classic cat-and-mouse chase in the guise of Tom and Jerry is still going on after 80 years!
This year, the duo continue with their trademark cartoony violence in a full-length, mixed live action and animation movie entitled TOM & JERRY. This is the characters' first theatrical release, with actors Chloë Grace Moretz, Michael Pena, Ken Jeong, Rob Delany and Colin Jost joining in the real world set. The movie is directed by Tim Story and produced by Chris DeFaria. TOM & JERRY will be opening at local theatres on 11 February.
Our favourite nimble and mischievous mouse Jerry has taken residence at a swanky New York City hotel, and has been spotted by guest, causing a massive mouse hunt to begin. Kayla (Chloë Grace Moretz), one of the hotel's employees, decided to hire a cat to solve the problem. And guess who that hapless cat turns out to be? Tom is reunited with his frenemy and their long-standing feud starts up again.
However, Tom and Jerry find out that someone else is conspiring against them as well as Kayla, and the three decide to team up together.
Leading up the anticipated release of the TOM & JERRY movie, Warner Bros. has planned a series of exciting promotional events. Check them out below!
