Spy Cat (Template:Lang-de),[1] also known by its German name Marnie's World, is a 2018 German-Belgian 3D computer-animated adventure comedy film written and directed by brothers Christoph and Wolfgang Lauenstein.[5][6] The film was loosely inspired by the German fairy tale Town Musicians of Bremen.[3]
Release
Spy Cat had its world premiere at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival on 13 June 2018,[3] before being theatrically released in Portugal on 14 March 2019.[1] It was released in Germany on 18 April and Belgium on 1 May.[1] The film had a worldwide gross of $3,440,104,[4] but received generally negative reviews from critics.[7][8]
For its British theatrical release, the film was slightly cut to remove a comical scene of a man urinating against another man accidentally when he's distracted in order to receive a U rating from the British Board of Film Classification. An uncut PG classification was available.[9]
In 2020, Spy Cat was released again on DVD with influencer Addison Rae now voicing the character of Marnie.
