First Trailer for Bill Hader's CAT IN THE HAT Animated Film
Warner Bros. Pictures Animation has released the first trailer for its upcoming film The Cat in the Hat, which is an animated adaptation of the Dr. Seuss’ classic story, and Bill Hader takes on the lead role. It looks like a fun film that the kids will enjoy!
In the film, the Cat “spreads joy to kids in his hilarious, signature and singularly irreverent way, transporting them and audiences on a fantastical journey through a world they’ve never seen before.
“Our hero’s toughest assignment yet comes from the I.I.I.I. (Institute for the Institution of Imagination and Inspiration, LLC), which asks him to cheer up Gabby and Sebastian, a pair of siblings struggling with their move to a new town.
“Known for taking things too far, this could be this agent of chaos’ last chance to prove himself…or lose his magical hat!”
Hader is joined in the film by Xochitl Gomez, Matt Berry, Quinta Brunson, Paula Pell, Tiago Martinez, Giancarlo Esposito, America Ferrera, Bowen Yang, and Tituss Burgess.
The movie was directed by Alessandro Carloni and Erica Rivinoja, and will hit theaters and IMAX on February 27, 2026.
