The Garfield Movie

The Garfield Movie is a 2024 animated adventure comedy film based on the comic strip Garfield created by Jim Davis. Directed by Mark Dindal and written by Paul A. Kaplan, Mark Torgove, and David Reynolds, it is the third theatrical Garfield film adaptation. The film features the voices of Chris Pratt as Garfield and Samuel L. Jackson as his father, alongside Hannah Waddingham, Ving Rhames, Nicholas Hoult, Cecily Strong, Harvey Guillén, Brett Goldstein, Bowen Yang, and Snoop Dogg. In the film, Garfield is reunited with his long-lost father, a street cat named Vic, before being forced into joining him on a high-stakes adventure.

Development on The Garfield Movie began at Alcon Entertainment in 2016. Dindal was announced as the film's director in November 2018, and pre-production began the following month. By 2021, Pratt had been cast as Garfield, with the rest of the cast joining the following year. The film was animated by DNEG Animation, while John Debney, a frequent collaborator of Dindal, composed the score.
