The world hasn’t seen a theatrical adaptation of one of Dr. Seuss’ stories since since the animated movie The Grinch put a new spin on the Christmas buzzkill in 2018, nearly 20 years since Jim Carrey played the role in live-action (and no, the comedic actor isn’t returning for a Grinch sequel). But we’re finally getting pretty close to Seuss getting big screen coverage again, as it was announced more than a decade ago that an animated The Cat in the Hat movie was in development. Now word’s come in that Bill Hader will be leading this project, but what really excites me is he’s being joined by What We Do in the Shadows’ Matt Berry.

Before I delve into why I’m jazzed about Berry’s inclusion, let’s go over who else will be in The Cat in the Hat’s cast. Warner Bros. Pictures Animation has tapped Abbott Elementary’s Qunita Brunson, Saturday Night Live’s Bowen Yang, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Xocithl Gomez and Girls5Eva’s Paula Pell to come aboard. Outside of Hader as The Cat (his second time playing the role, the first time being in a particularly memorable SNL sketch), none of the other actors’ characters have been identified yet. The movie is due out on March 6, 2026, and in this adaptation that’s directed and written by Alessandro Carloni and Erica Rivinoja, The Cat will cheer up two siblings who are struggling with having recently moved to a new town.
