Ketchup Entertainment has confirmed that the first trailer for the long-awaited Looney Tunes movie “Coyote vs. Acme” will arrive online next week.
To celebrate the news and in honour of tax day in the United States (April 15th), the first poster has been released along with a brief trailer tease which you can see below.
The tease pokes fun at Warner Bros. Discovery and its decision to shelve the $70 million-budgeted movie as a $30 million tax write-off rather than release it. Ketchup acquired the worldwide rights to the film last year.
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.
The film will open in cinemas on August 28th 2026.
