Video essayist and YouTuber Lindsay Ellis has created an hour-long video, attempting to explain CATS.

No, there isn't an actual 'butthole cut' of the CATS film, but that hasn't stopped XVP Comedy from making a parody of the trailer visualizing what might have been!

The CATS movie is now available on digital home release and the ill-fated (we're not sure either?) hit adaptation of the stage musical is making headlines once again.

Seth Rogen took to Twitter last night, in honor of the Cats film being released digitally, to live-tweet his reactions to the film while stoned.

The Cats film is now available on digital platforms as of today, March 17.

Judi Dench, who played Old Deuteronomy in the recent live-action adaptation of Cats, shared that she has yet to see the Tom Hooper-directed film.

Covent Garden's Royal Opera House continues its successful series of live screenings to over 1000 cinemas across the world. Dances at a Gathering / The Cellist is a chance to see two incredibly different ballets in one evening; both beautifully moving in their own ways.

The first mixed programme of 2020 from the Royal Ballet sees Cathy Marston's much anticipated and arguably long overdue first work for the main stage at Covent Garden. Renowned for her lucid and atmospheric storytelling, most recently in The Suit (Ballet Black) and Victoria (Northern Ballet), she now turns her attention to an unconventional but heartfelt love story. 

Sing and dance with the all-star cast of CATS when the film is released on digital March 17 and Blu-ray and DVD April 7.

During the 2020 Oscars, James Corden and Rebel Wilson, both stars of the recent CATS, come out on stage to talk about the importance of Visual Effects. The two actors poked fun at the film adaptation, while dressed in cat suits!

The Cats film will be available to own this spring! The film will be available on DVD and Blu-ray, as well as digital download, on April 7, 2020.

The Golden Raspberry Awards (also known in short terms as Razzies and Razzie Awards) is a parody award show honoring the worst of cinematic under-achievements. This year's nominations have been announced, and the cast of the Cats film has made the list in many categories.

John Cranko's Onegin was last performed by the Royal Ballet in 2015. Now five years later, there is a new wave of rising stars who are keen to showcase their take on the great dramatic classical roles on offer, and how palpably Onegin is a ballet that needs those stars. With only four key characters, the corps are on hand to fill the lighter moments but all eyes are on the romantic entanglement at the centre of the story.  

CATS is a bizarre musical, to begin with, and it's understandably complex to adapt it into a film.

If you live in the Philippines, you'll now have the chance to see Universal Pictures' film adaptation of the famous stage musical Cats, directed by Tom Hooper (The King's Speech, Les Miserables). The movie arrives in Philippine cinemas on 8 January 2020.

If we're being honest, we can probably count on one hand the number of viewers who went to see Tom Hooper's ill-advised movie version of Cats for the music. Andrew Lloyd Webber's music has never really been the appeal of Cats; it's always been the visuals and the brand more than anything that allowed it to become an iconic piece of theatre pop culture. As you probably expect, the soundtrack for the movie does very little new, but dutifully recreates the score with a talented all-star cast.

On Sunday, January 5, 77th Annual Golden Globe Awards will air live on NBC coast to coast at 8:00 p.m. EST, hosted by Ricky Gervais. The Best Original Song - Motion Picture category highlights some of Broadway's best and we are here to help you get to know each song nominated!

According to Variety, the new Cats film is expected to suffer a $100 million loss, after making just $38 million globally in its first two weeks in theaters.

With 2019 coming to a close, the new decade is set to bring us a slew of film adaptations of our favorite stage musicals! From West Side Story to In the Heights to The Prom, we are gearing up for some big films, but before we move into 2020, let's have a look back on the last ten years of musicals turned into films!

Universal has pulled Cats from its 'For Your Consideration' page, officially deeming the film ineligible for Oscar nominations. The page lists Universal's films that are qualified for Oscars, accompanied by a guide to their categories and a list of screenings for each film.
