Unlike Batgirl, Coyote vs. ACME should finally go out on our screens!

More than a year after its cancellation by Warner Bros., the film was acquired by another distributor.

Everything is just a matter of money. At the end of 2023, Coyote vs. Acmefamily comedy inspired by Looney Tuneshad been put aside by Warner Bros. For tax reasons. The studio found it more advantageous at the time not to take it out – despite the money invested in production – in a policy of cost reduction after the pandemic, and used it as a tax deduction of $ 30 million. For these same reasons, Warner had locked Batgirl In a drawer, causing an uproar in the industry. If the superheroine DC will find it difficult to get out of it, Coyote vs. Acme seems to have found a plan B.

According to the Deadline media, Ketchup Entertainment should acquire the film’s distribution rights. Although the sale is not yet finalized, the price would be estimated at around $ 50 million.

Ketchup Entertainment, an independent distributor, has recently been responsible for release in theaters of Daffy and Porky save the worldanother film Looney Tunes Released in France last February (120,000 admissions), also sold by Warner Bros. To date, Daffy and Porky have garnered less than $ 7 million in global revenue.

Suffice to say that Ketchup Entertainment takes a risk by putting 50 million on Coyote vs. Acmehybrid farce mixing real shots and animation, which features John Cena And Lana Condor. Produced by James Gunnbecome since the boss of DC Studios, Warner Bros. had authorized the film team to look for a new distributor. Amazon Prime Video, Apple and Netflix watched the feature film at that time, but no agreement had been concluded.

History follows “A unlucky lawyer (WILL FORT) Who is hired by Coyote, the character of the Looney Tunes, who wants to court the ACME company, which according to him makes defective products (especially the explosives he uses to try to apprehend BIP BIP)“.

No release date mentioned for the moment.
