The Guardians of the Galaxy star is gaining something of a reputation in the world of voice acting, having already lent his talents to The LEGO Movie and its sequel, as well as Pixar’s Onward. Despite his A-list status, Pratt has proven to be a fairly polarizing presence online, so you can imagine how the internet reacted to the Garfield news.

Some fans are already demanding the return of Bill Murray, who famously only played the part in the past because he thought one of the Coen brothers was involved, but there’s been a myriad of different reactions to the Pratt announcement, as you can see below.
