It's been quite a while since Tom and Jerry were relevant, but Warner Bros. will be hoping to reignite interest in the iconic cat and mouse duo with a new live-action adventure set to hit theatres next March, and the first trailer along with a promo still (via People.com) have now been released.

Chloë Grace Moretz (Kick-Ass, Let Me In) stars as Kayla, a wedding planner who hires Tom to capture Jerry and keep him from causing trouble when the rambunctious rodent moves into New York City’s finest hotel on the eve of an important wedding.

"I loved that she was a lot like Jerry," Moretz said of her "goofball" character. "She was a girl who gunned for what she wanted to achieve but realizes that time and honesty is what will prevail in the end."

"I’ve been watching the Tom and Jerry cartoon for as long as I can remember," she adds. "It was a mainstay in my household growing up and we would always crowd around to watch their silly antics play out on screen!"

Check out the trailer below, and let us know what you think.

Directed by Tim Story, Tom and Jerry also stars Colin Jost, Ken Jeong, Michael Peña, and Rob Delaney. The movie opens in theaters on March 5, 2021.

I don't hate it. This is being done by Tim Story, so expectations are low af. Then again, if there's one thing he did right in the first 2 F4 movies, it was the comedy.

Idk, Tom & Jerry hasn't been good literally since the 50's/60's. Don't see that changing now, but always up for a surprise. Animation nice tho.

This looks like a shitty fan made YouTube short. I'm not one for doing live action versions of cartoon characters but if they are going to look like that anyway and there is no story reason for them to like be from the cartoon world (like rocky and Bullwinkle) then why not just make the whole movie animated?

Or make them photo realistic? Neither of these is a good option of course cause tom and jerry does not work as a movie but whatever the [frick] this is?

Uh, what is with modern tom and jerry? These two characters are not friends. Just not. Most of the cartoons revolve around tom trying to eat jerry and jerry is either trying to survive tom or just getting a kick out of torturing tom. You might as well have batman and joker be friends, at least it makes more sense than tom and jerry.

I could never get into Tom & Jerry. I always wanted Tom to win.

Alright two live-action/animated movies in 2021, this and Space Jam: A New Legacy!

That 2D/3D blend of animation for Tom and Jerry isn’t working for me. I hope the new Space Jam doesn’t look like this.
