The Latin Grammy for best new artist is often one of the most coveted awards, as it can only be won once in a lifetime and can open many doors.

Yet “Tom & Jerry” still managed the second-best opening of the pandemic following Warner Bros.' “Wonder Woman 1984,” which launched with $16.7 million in December while also landing on HBO Max. “With half of theaters still closed, the pandemic still a threat, and ‘Tom & Jerry’ available at home, this is a very good opening,” said David A. Warner Bros. said “Tom & Jerry” has already seen more than 10,000 such bookings.

It's something he had to gradually learn after gaining 40 pounds (almost 20 kilos) during the first months of quarantine.
