Coyote vs Acme: $70m Looney Tunes film to be released after being canned by Warner Bros
Live-action animated film starring John Cena and Will Forte will hit cinemas in 2026, after it was controversially shelved in favour of a $30m tax write-down
Ketchup Entertainment announced on Monday that it acquired worldwide distribution rights to the live-action animated film for an undisclosed sum. Oscar-winning film-makers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller saw a screening and described the film as “funny, charming, good physical comedy timing, with a surprising amount of heart”.
