Oman today_ Chris Pratt is set to return as the voice of Garfield in the second installment of the animated film. The first movie, released in 2024, was a commercial success, grossing $230 million worldwide. Currently, Alcon Entertainment is still in the process of selecting a writer and director for the upcoming project.
The story of Garfield centers on a lazy, cynical orange cat and his unique relationship with his owner, Jon Arbuckle. In the first film, Samuel L. Jackson voiced a new character named Vic, who is portrayed as Garfield’s father. Other members of the voice cast included Nicholas Hoult, Hannah Waddingham, Cecily Strong, Ving Rhames, Brett Goldstein, and Bowen Yang.
The character of Garfield was originally created in 1973 by cartoonist Jim Davis. It began as a comic strip published in just 41 newspapers, but it eventually expanded to over 2,500 publications worldwide. Over the years, four films have been produced based on the character, the most notable being Garfield: The Movie (2004) and its sequel Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties (2006), both featuring Bill Murray as the voice of Garfield.
Now, with a new animated version in development, this beloved character is once again preparing to make his return to the big screen.
