Article Summary

Chris Pratt announces a return to recording for Garfield post-strike, sparking buzz.
First Garfield teaser dropped, keeping plot under wraps amid high expectations.
Sony aims for a hit with Pratt's voice, banking on his Super Mario Bros. success.
New images from Garfield released, fueling anticipation for the 2024 movie.

Now that the strikes are over, productions are trying to get as much work done as possible before the holiday season starts next month to try and make up for lost time. Of course, there is only so much they can do, but they will be running on a crunch schedule for any productions set to come out in the first half of 2024. That is the same for animated films as well. We got the first trailer for Garfield the other day, and it was a teaser that didn't tell us much about what the film is about. It was a cold opening of the cat distribution system working in Garfield's favor. So Sony isn't exactly telling everyone what this film is about just yet, and with how badly previous adaptations of this character have been, no one can blame them. However, they do have a point in their favor: Chris Pratt is voicing Garfield. While that was the topic of some light-hearted ribbing at the time, the tune changed dramatically after The Super Mario Bros. Movie and how much money that film managed to bring in. No doubt Sony is hoping that lightning will strike again. Pratt shared on his official Instagram that he was back in the recording booth for the film, saying, "Strike over. Back in action. LETS GO!! #Garfield #JockoGO." We also have some new images that were released last week.
