As Kayla tries to navigate her new job, she enlists the help of Tom Cat to finally get rid of the mischievous mouse. However, despite the initial hints that the two may have called a truce, it seems their feud has simply shifted to a luxurious hotel in the bustling city of New York. Get ready to see the classic cat-and-mouse duo in a whole new light as they continue their comedic antics in the big city.
In a new role, the official preview for the upcoming animated-live-action film Tom and Jerry was released on Tuesday, featuring Chloe Grace Moretz as she becomes entangled in the long-standing rivalry between the two iconic characters. The trailer shows Tom and Jerry leaving their past behind to navigate life in the bustling city, only for Tom to encounter a mishap with a bus. The scene shifts to Jerry taking up residence in a hotel, prompting Kayla to seek help from Tom to solve the “mouse problem.” However, when Jerry sees Tom attempting to catch him, he bursts into laughter, causing Tom to feel embarrassed and frustrated as he struggles to capture his tiny adversary.
Kayla was facing a mouse problem at her new job as a wedding planner. To solve the issue, she decided to enlist the help of Tom Cat, who had previously been unsuccessful in dealing with the pesky rodent.
Even though the video hinted at a possible ceasefire between the fluffy rivals, it turns out their feud just moved to a luxurious hotel in the heart of New York City.
In a tale as old as time, Tom & Jerry, the world’s most famous rivals, find themselves in a new adventure in the bustling big city, as narrated before Tom’s unfortunate encounter with a bus. The ensuing cat and mouse shenanigans not only put Kayla’s career on the line but also jeopardize the “wedding of the century” and possibly the entire hotel, causing chaos and mayhem everywhere they go. Just like the classic cartoon that debuted in 1940 by the genius duo William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, Tom endures a series of painful and comical mishaps, from being electrocuted to getting struck by a bowling ball. Despite the hardships faced by Tom, the film promises to deliver a wild and entertaining ride for audiences when it hits theaters on March 5, 2021. Chloe Grace Moretz, who plays a role in the film, shared her excitement about working on the project, expressing how much fun she had on set. She also revealed that she resonated with her character, describing her as a “total goofball” that allowed her to embrace her true self in real life.
Chaos ensues as the camera follows Jerry settling into his hotel room while Kayla deals with a pest issue, eventually turning to Tom for assistance.
Uh-oh: But when Jerry catches sight of the pet cat, he can’t help but burst into laughter, making Tom blush and accidentally bump his head against the wall in his attempt to grab him.
Iconic adversaries: The ongoing battle between a cat and mouse poses a threat to Kayla’s career, the highly anticipated ‘wedding of the century’, and even the hotel itself, leading to chaos and mayhem. Expressing admiration for Kayla, the actress remarked, “I admired her Jerry-like determination to achieve her goals, understanding that time and honesty are key to success.” Moretz shared her excitement for the project, mentioning her long-standing love for Tom and Jerry since childhood. “Watching their comical escapades was a cherished tradition in my household, bringing everyone together for endless entertainment,” she fondly recalled.
Ow! Just like in the classic cartoon from 1940 by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, Tom’s pursuit is not only difficult but also pretty rough.
Tom is in for a wild ride in this cat and house game, with scenes of him getting zapped, bowling balls crashing into him, and Jerry putting him through some serious torture.
In an upcoming film set to be released on March 5, 2021, actress Moretz shared her experience on set, expressing how much she enjoyed working on the project. Acting alongside animated characters posed some challenges as she had to work with objects like a stick with a name tag for Tom and a scaled model for Jerry. Despite the obstacles, Moretz found it fascinating to improvise and collaborate with animators to push the boundaries of their creativity.
Navigating the world of acting alongside animated characters posed its own set of obstacles, as she frequently found herself in the unique position of ‘sharing the screen with nothing.’
In May 2019, the celebrity mentioned how much they admired Kayla for being similar to Jerry. They appreciated her determination to pursue her goals, while also acknowledging the importance of time and honesty in ultimately achieving success.
