Pixar has a new cat in town, and he is already in trouble! The official trailer for Gatto just dropped, and it introduces us to Nero, a scrappy black cat voiced by Mark Ruffalo, living in Venice, Italy. Nero is a street cat with a big problem. He is afraid of water, which is not ideal when your whole city is canals, and he owes a debt to Rocco, the ruthless feline mob boss voiced by Laurence Fishburne.
If you have ever lived with a cat, the trailer will feel very familiar. There is a whole scene about missing tuna on Tuna Tuesday. How cute! There is a swinging lightbulb that completely derails an interrogation, because of course it does. Cats are cats, even when they are running a mob.
But underneath the laughs, this one has heart. Nero starts to wonder if he has been living his nine lives the right way. A trip to a dreamlike afterlife, guided by a crow, forces him to face how many lives he has already used up. Then, he crosses paths with an unexpected human friend, a young street artist who just might help him find his purpose, if Venice does not get the better of him first. Take a look!
Gatto arrives only in theaters on March 5, 2027. And if you go opening weekend, you will also catch a brand new Pixar short called Loving Dory playing before the movie.
A black cat, a mob boss, a city full of canals, and a question about what makes a life well lived. This one looks like classic Pixar with a little extra mischief. We cannot wait.
Here is a look back to Disney and Pixar Revealing First Trailer and Poster for Gatto and to the post regarding Jonathan Garson becoming Pixar’s President post.
