One of the most popular cartoon series in the world, ‘Tom and Jerry’, is all set to return after an absence of 46 years and the show will have Hollywood celebs as their supporting cast.

The iconic animated cartoon made Hollywood history when Jerry danced with actor Gene Kelly in the 1945 film ‘Anchors Aweigh’, the Daily Express reported.

The brand new series will see ‘Seinfeld’ star Jason Alexander giving his voice to Tom’s frustrated owner and Simon Helberg of ‘The Big Bang Theory’, will play a rat friend of Jerry. — HT
