About the film
Dr. Seuss' The Grinch (or simply The Grinch) is a 2018 American animated Christmas comedy film based on How the Grinch Stole Christmas! by Dr. Seuss. Produced by Illumination, it was directed by Scott Mosier and Yarrow Cheney and written by Michael LeSieur and Tommy Swerdlow. Narrated by Pharrell Williams, the film stars Benedict Cumberbatch as the Grinch, with Rashida Jones, Kenan Thompson, and Angela Lansbury in supporting roles. The plot follows the Grinch, who plans to stop Whoville's Christmas celebration by stealing all the town's decorations and gifts, with his pet dog Max. The film is the third screen adaptation of the book, following the 1966 television special and the 2000 live-action film. It was announced in 2013, and by 2016, Cumberbatch was cast, and Cheney and Peter Candeland were set to direct. In 2018, Mosier took over Candeland's position as co-director.
