Christopher Ho, Head of Kids – Southeast Asia, Warner Bros. Discovery, said: “It was important for us to create stories and environments that feel authentically ‘Singapore’ – and at the same time honor the distinct animation style and sense of humor that has made Tom and Jerry so well loved for generations. Catch their antics as they experience local delicacies durian and ice kachang, and encounter Merli – a character inspired by Singapore’s mythical Merlion – in iconic locations like the Botanic Gardens, Sentosa and Marina Bay.”

Tom and Jerry is one of the leading animation properties in Warner Bros. Discovery’s franchise portfolio, with a global social reach of 50 million and almost 30 billion minutes watched on the Warner Bros. Kids YouTube channel. More than 500 episodes and 15 movies have been made so far in its 83-year history, securing seven Academy Awards along the way. 

This new series is part of a wider partnership between Warner Bros. Discovery and the Singapore Tourism Board to collaborate on content that will spotlight and inspire travel to destination Singapore.
