After being shelved by Warner Bros. in 2023 for a $30 million tax write-off, Coyote vs. Acme will hit theaters on August 28, 2026, thanks to Ketchup Entertainment.
The live-action/animated hybrid, starring John Cena and Will Forte with Wile E. Coyote, faced near cancellation but was saved after fan outcry and a $50 million acquisition.
Directed by Dave Green, the film follows Coyote suing Acme Corporation, with Forte as his lawyer and Cena as the opposing attorney.
Test screenings scored high, promising a mix of Looney Tunes humor and heart. The release, announced at Comic-Con, marks a win for creativity and fan advocacy.
