A new trailer has been released for The Garfield Movie with Christ Pratt leading a star-studded cast featuring some huge Hollywood actors.
It’s ironic that for a cat who famously dislikes Mondays, the latest trailer for Sony’s upcoming The Garfield Movie has dropped – you guessed it – on a Monday, giving fans a glimpse of the troublesome ginger feline’s newest adventure.
New trailer drops for The Garfield Movie
The new trailer for The Garfield Movie begins with the titular kitty as an adorable and wide-eyed kitten finding his way to John Arbuckle before his insatiable appetite kicks in.
A montage of mischief follows before Garfield is suddenly catnapped by a pair of dogs until he is saved at the last minute by his father, Vic.
After reuniting with his long-lost dad, Garfield and his canine friend Odie are forced to leave their pampered life behind as they embark on a high-stakes heist.
The Garfield Movie will be pouncing into theaters on May 24, 2024, almost exactly 10 years since Bill Murray voiced the titular cat in June 2004’s Garfield: The Movie.

The announcement that Chris Pratt will be voicing Garfield may have been met with a sigh by some fans who feel he’s everywhere of late, but the movie’s supporting cast is a veritable feast of Hollywood talent.
