Zayn is also credited as executive music producer, writing some new hits for the film, including a duet with Simone.
The new animation was directed by Christopher Jenkins and is set to be released in April, 2024.
Set to premiere at Sundance, it tells the story of Beckett the cat undergoing a series of transformations, both physical and emotional, which learning a vital lesson about love.
Speaking of directing Zayn for his debut, Christopher told Variety: 'I was apprehensive to begin with, I didn’t know what to expect.
'Amongst the community of animation directors, we know that if we’re going to go with a big star that can come with all sorts of issues.
'Sometimes people come in with an entourage and you can barely find the real person underneath, which is what I love to do. Zayn was the complete opposite.
'We bonded immediately, and I knew what I had to do going in was to have a good time, like two guys just having a laugh really, and then I would push him for more emotions. But he’s really funny.
'He plays those guys with the pathos that I really wanted, which was, they are acting as bad guys but they’re not really bad. They don’t know how to be bad. At the start of the next movie — if we get there, I hope — they’ve actually bought that pub in town and called it Pets and Pints.'
