Aubrey Plaza To Voice Grumpy Cat

Lifetime announced that Plaza, who currently stars as the always-angry April on Parks and Recreation, would be voicing the Internet and meme star on Thursday.

Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas

Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas will follow Grumpy Cat, who is so grumpy because she is never adopted, but, when a 12-year-old girl (Megan Charpentier) meets Grumpy Cat and they realize she can talk to Grumpy Cat, the two get together and go on a series of adventures and find the joy in Christmas.

Plaza addressed the casting on Twitter, posting a Christmas-themed Grumpy Cat meme.

Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas is set to premiere November 29 at 8 p.m. on Lifetime.
