Genovese, born in 1971, Enrico Casarosa carries high the banner of Italian animation around the world: he is the director who in 2021 signed the Disney-Pixar film Luca, making headlines worldwide.
From March 4 of the coming year the cinema will welcome the new film directed by our compatriot, once again under the Disney-Pixar banner: it is titled Cat and this time it leaves behind Liguria and its human protagonists for a Venetian setting and for a cast led by felines. The new film by Casarosa, in fact, is called Cat.
This is the official plot:
In Cat, after years spent navigating superstition and the canals of Venice, Nero begins to wonder whether he has lived the right lives. In debt to Rocco, the boss of the local feline organized crime, Nero finds himself facing a dilemma and is forced to forge a truly unexpected friendship with Maja, a street musician. With his last life at stake and the help of Maja, Nero could finally discover his true purpose, unless Venice has the upper hand on him first. Cat is directed by Enrico Casarosa and produced by Andrea Warren, the team of filmmakers who brought Luca, the Oscar®-nominated film.
Alongside Cat — which features a voice cast including Mark Ruffalo, Laurence Fishburne, John Turturro, Hason Schartzmann and many others, among them Casarosa himself — there will be A Love for Dory, the new animated short set in the world of Finding Nemo, which follows the adventures of the forgetful blue surgeon fish as she finds herself involved in a “romantic encounter” that is unlucky and unexpected.
Here below is the new trailer and the poster for Cat.
