New Delhi: Hollywood star Mark Ruffalo has lent his voice to Nero, a black cat in Disney and Pixar's animated film ‘Gatto’, which is set to release in theatres on March 5, 2027, in Hindi and English, alongside the animated short film ‘Loving Dory’.

The makers released the trailer of ‘Gatto’ on their official Instagram handle on Friday. The film revolves around Nero, a street-smart cat who has spent years working as a criminal lackey for Rocco (voiced by Laurence Fishburne), a ruthless local feline mob boss.

The film is directed by Enrico Casarosa and produced by Andrea Warren.

Besides Ruffalo, Sherry Cola voices Regina, while John Turturro voices Capitano Briganti and Rumen Sali Shopov voices Janko.

The makers will also release ‘Loving Dory’, an animated short film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and Walt Disney Pictures, alongside ‘Gatto’.

Ellen DeGeneres returns as the voice of Dory in the short, which follows the forgetful blue tang fish as she mistakes a drifting plastic bag for a jellyfish, leading to an unexpected situation. It is directed by Lou Hamou-Lhadj and also features Albert Brooks.
