In 2012, following the financial success of The Lorax, an animated film adaptation of The Lorax, Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment announced plans to produce a CGI adaptation of The Cat in the Hat. Rob Lieber was set to write the script, with Chris Meledandri as producer, and Audrey Geisel as executive producer, but the project never came to fruition.
In January 2018, Warner Animation Group picked up the rights for the animated Cat in the Hat film as part of a creative partnership with Seuss Enterprises. In October 2020, Erica Rivinoja and Art Hernandez were announced as directors. However, in June 2023, Hernandez was replaced by Alessandro Carloni while both Carloni and Rivinoja also wrote the screenplay for the film. In March 2024, Bill Hader was cast in the role of the Cat and set to also serve as an executive producer. Hader previously played the Cat in the Hat in a 2014 Saturday Night Live sketch. Later that month, it was announced that DNEG Animation would provide the animation for the film, that Quinta Brunson, Bowen Yang, Xochitl Gomez, Matt Berry, and Paula Pell joined the cast, and that the film would be released on March 6, 2026 after previously being expected for 2025.
