Jackson, Hannah Waddingham, Ving Rhames, Nicholas Hoult, Cecily Strong, Harvey Guillén, Brett Goldstein, Bowen Yang, and Snoop Dogg.

By November 2021, Sony Pictures had purchased the distribution rights for the film, and Pratt was cast as Garfield. The rest of the cast joined in 2022. The film was animated by DNEG Animation, and John Debney, a frequent collaborator of Dindal, composed the score.
