Ketchup Entertainment has released a new promo for the long-awaited Looney Tunes movie “Coyote vs. Acme” and boy is it a strange one.
Set to Mozart’s Requiem, the clip starts out almost like an operatic spin on “All the President’s Men” with Bugs Bunny as Deep Throat, before a credit that is a straight up parody of the “Avengers: Doomsday” teaser.
In the film Wile E. Coyote, who, after Acme products fail him one too many times in his dogged pursuit of the Roadrunner, decides to hire a billboard lawyer named Kevin Avery (Will Forte) to sue the Acme Corporation.
The case pits Wile E. and his lawyer against the latter’s intimidating former boss (John Cena), but a growing friendship between man and cartoon stokes their determination to win.
Lana Condor, P.J. Byrne, Tone Bell, Martha Kelly, and Luis Guzmán co-star. Dave Green directs from a screenplay by Samy Burch. James Gunn and Chris deFaria are producers.
“Coyote vs. Acme” will open in cinemas on August 28th.
