Tom & Jerry embark on a time travel in the new film “A Museum Adventure”

Tom & Jerry are about to return to theaters with Tom & Jerry: A Museum Adventurewhich just got a new trailer full of fun chaos, just the way fans like it. The film directed by Gang Zhang premieres in January 8, 2026with national distribution from Imagem Filmes, and is part of the celebrations of 85 years from the duo created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera.

For those who grew up watching the two’s insane chases and for those who knew the duo through the most recent animations, the film bets on that classic physical humor that marked generations, mixed with an adventure that speaks to today’s audience.

From the Metropolitan Museum to another dimension

In the new story, Jerry, now completely interested in ancient civilizations, breaks into a special exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum in New York to find the mysterious Magic Compass. Tom, acting as the site’s security guard, tries to prevent the chaos without much success.

During the chase, the two accidentally activate a magical portal and are thrown into another world. There, Tom is mistaken for a divine messenger and becomes an instant celebrity, while Jerry teams up with a charismatic and treacherous mouse. Between new allies and enemies, the duo must deal with misunderstandings, dangers and lots of messes.

Even in another dimension, the rivalry continues, but now the two need to work together if they want to save the city and, most importantly, return home.

Classic, modern and full of rhythm

The film promises to bring back what has always defined Tom & Jerry: visual humor, exaggerated situations and that comedy timing that works without needing lines. At the same time, the narrative adds elements of fantasy and adventure that bring the characters closer to a new generation of viewers.

For those who enjoy animated films, this type of hybrid approach, mixing nostalgia with current dynamism, keeps the legacy alive without losing the original charm.
