Mike Myers stars in the title role of Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat, the highly anticipated live-action film adaptation of the beloved literary classic. A Universal Pictures/DreamWorks Pictures/Imagine Entertainment presentation, Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat is being produced by Academy Award® winner Brian Grazer and directed by Bo Welch (the Oscar®-nominated film production designer behind such memorable and stylish films as The Lost Boys, Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, Batman Returns, Men in Black and Men in Black II), making his debut as a film director. The film is written by Alec Berg & David Mandel & Jeff Schaffer and based on the book by Dr. Seuss.
Stepping into the furry paws of the original party animal, Seuss'
fast-talking feline, Myers adds another indelible film character to his
ever-growing list of classic comic creations. The decidedly off-kilter cool
cat first arrived (in published form) in 1957 and remains a best-seller to
date. Welch and his team have created a highly-stylized, Seussian world
where an uninvited visitor, the top hat wearing cat, turns the ho-hum world
of two children left alone into an all-out, adventure-filled trip through a
fantasyland inspired by the visionary author and brought to the eye-filling
screen by award-winning filmmakers, where "it's good to have fun...but you have to know how!"
