The Main Man: Garfield
You can't have a Garfield movie without the lasagna-loving, Monday-hating, dog-punting cat himself. And guess who's voicing our favorite feline? None other than Bill Murray! That's right, the comedic genius behind films like "Groundhog Day" and "Lost in Translation" will be bringing Garfield to life. We can already hear those iconic grunts and groans!
Jon Arbuckle: Garfield's Human
Garfield's human companion, the lovable and often clueless Jon Arbuckle, will be voiced by Chris Pratt. Pratt, known for his roles in "Guardians of the Galaxy" and "Parks and Recreation," will add his signature charm to the character. We're excited to see how he brings Jon's quirky humor and love for his cat to life.
The Rival: Odie
No Garfield is complete without his loyal, yet often misunderstood, dog companion, Odie. Sam Neill will be lending his voice to the lovable pooch. Neill, known for his roles in "Jurassic Park" and "The Lord of the Rings," will bring a touch of class to Odie while capturing his playful spirit.
The Love Interest: Liz Wilson
Garfield's veterinarian and Jon's love interest, Liz Wilson, will be voiced by Jenny Slate. Slate, known for her roles in "Zootopia" and "Parks and Recreation," will bring a delightful blend of wit and warmth to the character. We're excited to see her dynamic with both Garfield and Jon.
The Villain: Nermal
What's a Garfield movie without a little drama? Enter Nermal, Garfield's arch-nemesis and self-proclaimed "world's cutest kitten." John Oliver will be voicing the pesky feline. Oliver, known for his role in "Last Week Tonight" and his voice work in "The Lion King," will bring a perfect blend of humor and annoyance to the character.
