The Garfield Movie
Your favourite lasagne-loving, couch-occupying, sarcastic, orange and black-striped cat is back on the big screen, with an all-new cast. This time, Chris Pratt of Jurassic World fame voices the loveable feline who embarks on an unforgettable adventure. What’s in store?

Get ready for a hilariously thrilling adventure on Sunday 6 April at 20:05 on M-Net.
Fun fact: During a scene in the movie, Garfield is shown as a kitten crossing the street. He passes by a store called Lorenzo's Music Store, which is a nod to Garfield's original voice actor, Lorenzo Music.
Venom: The Last Dance
Superhero and comic book fans will be pleased to hear that Tom Hardy is back as the super-complex and heroic Venom/Eddie Brock in this third movie of the Venom franchise. This time, Brock and Venom face vicious monsters from Venom’s realm and find out that supervillain Knull (played by the remarkable Andy Serkis) is the mastermind behind it all.
