One holiday movie I’m looking forward to is Cats with Taylor Swift, James Corden, Judi Dench, Jennifer Hudson, Idris Elba, Ian McKellen and many other fabulous actors. Taylor Swift wrote a new song for the production. This has been a controversial movie and it hasn’t even opened yet. The first trailer, released last July, was panned by many critics and viewers. A second trailer was released November 19th and still not received particularly well. I have faith, however, that with the director (Tom Hooper who directed Les Misérables in 2012)) and an amazing cast, it will be worth seeing! The release will be December 20, 2019.
Watch the new trailer here.
