Trivia When the first trailer for the musical Cats, based on the play, was released in the summer of 2019, the reaction was mostly negative as viewers called the CGI humanoid cats "terrifying" and "haunting." But Radio Times reported that it gave Thundercats fans hope because they felt that style of CGI fur design opened up the possibility of a live action movie. See more »
