Plenty of actors can now add to their CV that they've worked opposite characters of some kind that are created in post-production, but only a handful or two can claim that they did it well. As I watched talented actors struggle their way through a creaky script that could have just as easily been unearthed from a time capsule of the 1990s, or the 1970s, or the 1950s, and spruced up a bit, I thought about how difficult it truly must have been for Hoskins to not only "interact" with animated characters in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but how few actors since have effectively followed his example. I spent a large chunk of the experience of watching Tom & Jerry thinking about the late Bob Hoskins.
