Gatto, Pixar’s next feature film, looks like it’s a delight. We got our first teaser trailer for it today, and also the news that Mark Ruffalo (aka Bruce Banner in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, aka Dylan Rhodes in Now You See Me: Now You Don’t) is voicing a scrappy black cat named Nero and Laurence Fishburne (The Matrix trilogy) lends his voice to a mob boss cat named Rocco.
The one-minute clip released today shows both of them in action, where they’re attempting to interrogate another cat, but end up getting repeatedly distracted by the cord on a light bulb, as cats are wont to do.
The teaser also sets up one premise of the film—these are mob cats. Here’s the official synopsis:
In Gatto, after years of maneuvering the canal-ridden, superstitious city of Venice, Italy, Nero begins to question whether he’s lived the right lives. Indebted to Rocco, the local feline mob boss, Nero finds himself in a quandary and is forced to forge a truly unexpected friendship that may finally lead him to his purpose—unless Venice gets the better of him first.
Gatto comes from the team behind Pixar’s Luca, and sees Enrico Casarosa as the director and Andrea Warren producing. It’s set to premiere in theaters on March 5, 2027.
While we wait, check out Gatto’s teaser trailer below.
