Warner Bros. is planning to bring "Tom and Jerry" to life as CGI characters that run around in live-action settings.

In April 2019, Chloë Grace Moretz joined the cast as Kayla, a girl who works at a hotel that gets occupied by Jerry, forcing her to bring in Tom to get rid of him.

In May 2019, Michael Peña joined the cast as the antagonist, Terrance, the deputy general manager of the hotel.

In July 2019, Colin Jost joined the cast. Later in the month, Ken Jeong, Rob Delaney, Jordan Bolger and Pallavi Sharda Joined the cast.
