A harrowing account of what went on behind the scenes of Cats has been brought to light.

To start, making the film’s two-minute trailer took a full six months, leaving only four months to complete the entire hour-and-a-half film. Then, halfway through, the crew made a hair-raising discovery. “When we were looking at the playbacks, we were like, ‘What the hell? You guys see that?!,” the source recalled. “We paused it.
