What's New Pussycat? was released in the US on 22 June 1965.

Produced by Charles K. Feldman (who claimed to have overheard Warren Beatty answering the phone with "what's up pussycat?"), Feldman wanted Beatty to star, along with his then-girlfriend Leslie Caron. They hired 29-year-old comedy writer Woody Allen to provide the script, and Allen accepted as long as he had a role in the film.

As Allen turned in pages of the script, Beatty noticed that Allen's part was growing, at his expense. Beatty complained and was replaced by Peter O'Toole. Groucho Marx was initially cast opposite Beatty, but O'Toole demanded the part go to Peter Sellers (who demanded top billing). Director Clive Donner, O'Toole, and Sellers all made changes to the script, infuriating Allen.

Released to mixed reviews, the film was a box office success, and the title song (written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, and sung by Tom Jones) was an international hit (peaking at #3 in the US and #11 in the UK) and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Song.
