I don't remember how long ago it was that I posted about Grumpy Cat. All I know is that so many people looked at that article on this site that I was really shocked. I thought it was just a simple little story about a very cute cat. Next thing I know, people all over the world are looking at our post about Grumpy Cat. Well, now the famous feline is about to become a real bona fide movie star!

About six months after my post about GC went crazy on the internet, I wrote his owners and suggested that they contact someone in the animation world about making GC a cartoon character. Now, I know that it wasn't my e mail to the owners that caused (or even started the ball rolling for that matter) but I think it's pretty cool for GC's owners. The movie will be produced by Todd Garner and he says:

This started off as a picture of a cat, but rare is an image that evokes that much comedy, You read all of the memes and the comments, and one is funnier than the next. We think we can build a big family comedy around this character.

Of course, Grumpy will have a voice in this film. I'd just like to know exactly where to send my audition tape.
