Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The animation team studied over 160 original Hanna-Barbera shorts to nail the 2D look against live action.
This was the first theatrical Tom & Jerry feature since 1992's The Movie—and the first to blend live actors with hand-drawn characters since 1996's Space Jam era.
