|[[File:Cheshire Cat Tim Burton.jpg|frameless]]|| Disappearing and reappearing at will, and able even to change his size, levitate himself, assume the appearances of other characters, and become intangible at will. The cat plays a few jokes and toys with the other characters, but is helpful on a few occasions. He speaks in a slow and fluid manner. || More slender build, with a round head and grey coat with blue stripes. Bright aqua eyes (with slit-shaped pupils) and prominent teeth. Often more backlit than other adaptations, with only a faint, [[Bioluminescence|bioluminescent glow]] bringing his features into view.

In addition to the Cheshire Cat's appearances in films central to its [[Lewis Carroll]] origins, the Cheshire Cat has been featured in other cinematic works. The late filmmaker [[Chris Marker]] gave his monumental documentary on the New Left movement of 1967–1977, ''[[A Grin Without a Cat|Le fond de l'air est rouge]]'' (1977), the English title ''Grin without a Cat''. Like the original, it signifies that revolution was in the air, but failed to take root. In the film, it is also stated: ''a spearhead without a spear, a grin without a cat''. A later Marker film, ''Chats perchés (2004) (The Case of the Grinning Cat'' in English)'','' examined the context of [[M. Chat]] street art in France''.'' 

The Cheshire Cat appears in the [[Down the Rabbit Hole (Once Upon a Time in Wonderland)|first episode]] of the television series ''[[Once Upon a Time in Wonderland]]'' (a spin-off of ''[[Once Upon a Time (TV series)|Once Upon a Time]]'') voiced by [[Keith David]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://tvline.com/2013/09/05/once-upon-a-time-in-wonderland-cheshire-cat-keith-david/ |title=Once upon a Time in Wonderland exclusive: Keith David to voice Cheshire Cat |first=Matt Webb |last=Mitovich |date=5 September 2013 |access-date=25 September 2013 |archive-date=18 November 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131118210913/http://tvline.com/2013/09/05/once-upon-a-time-in-wonderland-cheshire-cat-keith-david/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> While looking for the [[Mad Hatter]]'s house from the trees, Alice encounters the Cheshire Cat in giant form where the Red Queen had promised him that Alice would be good food for him. They end up engaging each other in combat until the Knave of Hearts arrives and throws a piece of one mushroom side into his mouth, which shrinks the Cat back to normal size, and he leaves.
