## History

### Early 2000's

Starkitty the Movie had been in development since 2003. "When I first worked on a movie adaptation of one of my most popular tv shows, I didn't think of just one solid plot. The movie had several plots that were just everywhere, and when I showed the movie to Miyamoto-San, he didn't understand it. Then, I showed it to Fox executives, and after they watched it, they said that it was just the Greeny Phatom Movie but mixed with several other movies and made into a 4 hour movie. Yes, my movie was 4 hours, but over time it became the 95 minute movie that we all know and love, just like Shrek," Olivia said in an interview.

### Early 2010's

In 2013, a new version of Starkitty the Movie was being worked on. Out of the movie's original 15 plots, 3 plots were chosen. Several characters were added to the movie.

## The movie's release and marketing

### Japan

During the movie's release in Japan, several theaters, stores, and restaurants were decorated to look like the movie's locations, and there was a lot of promotional material. There were also many live events involving Starkitty mascots.
