We're in for a treat fellas. But I don't think it'll be another Les Miserables. TEXT: Hooper has been attached to direct Cats since 2016, but the film didn't really start to come together until this past summer, when Taylor Swift, Ian McKellen, James Corden, and Jennifer Hudson all signed on for key roles. The cast has only grown more star-studded since then, with Idris Elba signing on in October and names like Judi Dench joining up around the same time. Now, with a December 2019 release date in place, production has gotten formally underway. Universal has confirmed that filming is underway on Cats, with Hooper calling the shots from a script he cowrote with Lee Hall (Billy Elliot, War Horse). The cast has been finalized as well, with Swift leading the way as Bombalurina, McKellen playing Gus, Corden playing Bustopher Jones, and Hudson costarring as Grizabella. Meanwhile, Elba is playing Macavity, with Dench costarring as Old Deuteronomy, Jason Derulo playing Rum Tum Tugger, Rebel Wilson playing Jennyanydots, and Francesca Hayward rounding out the main ensemble as Victoria. screenrant.com/cats-movie-musical-cast-starts-filming/

She is the huge name (=> see her record breaking stadium tour). If she gets the lead role it depends on her: can she not only convince but excite as leading character? If yes, it will be a smash hit, if not...
