The job sounds straightforward: steal a rare violin from a street musician. But Nero, the cat sent to do it, finds someone willing to treat him as a good-luck charm rather than a small-time criminal. That is an awkward discovery when your boss expects the instrument back.

Pixar's trailer for Gatto reached more than 1.6 million views in 11 hours, drawing an early audience far beyond the channel's usual start for uploads of this length. The conversation has two distinct threads: the film's illustrated look and a cat-on-his-last-life premise that has viewers bringing up Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.

Nero, voiced by Mark Ruffalo, has learned Venice's feline criminal trade from Rocco, Laurence Fishburne's imposing white mob-boss cat. Rocco even offers a little ancestral encouragement before a fish raid: "Remember, we used to be tigers. Tigers."

The trailer moves between canal-side crime and a monochrome underworld, where Nero discovers that his supply of second chances is running out. His assignment to rob the violinist puts the life Rocco taught him against the friendship she offers.

Director Enrico Casarosa reunites with Luca producer Andrea Warren for another Italian setting, though this time the waterside adventure comes with a feline syndicate. Viewers are also discussing how closely the images resemble concept art, rather than just debating the familiar nine-lives setup.

The violin has a place beyond the heist: Dario Marianelli's score includes violin compositions co-written and performed by Barbora Botošová. Gatto is scheduled to reach theaters on March 5, 2027.

What viewers say

  • I love that the movie literally just looks like its concept art. That's what animation fans have been wanting for a long time

  • If I had a nickel for every movie about a cat not valuing its nine lives, I'd have two nickels.
  • Nice to see Pixar using an art style that feels different from what they normally use

  • I hope that, like Puss, he realizes how valuable life is (especially when you only have one).
  • I love the art style in this!
