Get a spotlight and a drumroll please as Universal Pictures unveil three New TV Spots for Cats.
Like we’ve said previously, no matter how good or bad the Cats Trailers were, if you love the musical you’ll love this. The powers to be at Universal Pictures, Andrew Lloyd Webber would have been been shocked at the public response. Social media erupted as did the press, pushing Tom Hooper to make changes.
Talking to Empire Magazine, it caught the director off guard. Pushing him to make changes, especially in the visual effects. “Possibly there were, in the extremity in some of the responses, some clues in how to keep evolving [the production]. When you watch the finished film, you’ll see that some of the designs of the cats have moved on since then, and certainly our understanding of how to use the technology to make them work has gone up, too.”
