Tom Sawyer is a 2000 direct-to-video animated film from MGM, similar to Disney's Robin Hood by starring a cast of anthropomorphic animals instead of humans. For example, Tom and Becky are cats, and Huck is a fox. Most voices are provided by popular country music singers including Lee Ann Womack and Rhett Akins.
