One of the most instantly recognizable cartoon characters of all time, Garfield is being thrust into the Hollywood spotlight once again in The Garfield Movie. While the original comic source material created by Jim Davis dates back to 1976, the beloved fuzzy orange cat remains in mainstream cinema, with three television shows, a dozen primetime specials, and two previous films: Garfield: The Movie, and Garfield: A Tale of Two Kitties.

While he initially got his big break in Parks and Recreation, Chris Pratt has gone on to lead some mega-franchises at the box office. Taking on the lead of Star-Lord in the insanely popular Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, Pratt has also appeared as Owen Grady in the Jurassic World trilogy. Pratt has had proven success as a voice actor in animation, with roles in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, The Lego Movie, and Onward.

Although she's had a lengthy career, Hannah Waddingham is best known for her recent role as Rebecca in Apple TV+'s runaway hit Ted Lasso alongside Jason Sudeikis and fellow The Garfield Movie co-star Brett Goldstein. Previously, Waddingham appeared in the Netflix series Sex Education, as well as eight episodes of Game of Thrones. She recently starred in The Fall Guy, which was headlined by Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.

Ving Rhames recently co-starred in Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning alongside Tom Cruise, a franchise that Rhames has been a part of since its inception in 1996. Rhames's previous credits have him crossing paths with other The Garfield Movie stars, including his Guardians of the Galaxy: Part 2 co-star Chris Pratt, as well as his Pulp Fiction co-star Samuel L. Jackson. Rhames has also appeared in Jacob's Ladder, The Equalizer, ER, and Miami Vice.
