Grumpy Cat Lands Movie Deal

Grumpy Cat – voted Meme of the Year at the 2013 Webby Awards – has landed a movie deal.

According to Deadline, he permanently moody feline will star in a 'Garfield-like' feature. This continues the success of 2012 for Grumpy Cat, a year in which she was named the year's most influential cat by MSNBC and the year's most important Meme by Mashable. She's certainly capitalising on her public profile, having already appeared on Today, Good Morning America, CBS Evening News, and The Soup.

And fame is unlikely to faze Grumpy Cat, who recently attracted huge crowds at SXSWi. Her YouTube channel already has over 20 million views and merchandise adorned with her image can be bought at Walmart and Thinkgeek.

It's unconfirmed whether Grumpy Cat will play herself in the movie.
