Coyote vs. Acme Trailer Debuts Ahead of August 28 Theatrical Release

Ketchup Entertainment revives the completed Warner Bros. film once shelved during a cost-cutting pivot.

Overview

  • Ketchup Entertainment released the first official trailer Wednesday, confirming a theatrical opening on August 28.
  • The live-action and animation comedy follows Wile E. Coyote as he sues ACME over gadgets that keep failing during his chases.
  • Will Forte plays the coyote’s lawyer and John Cena plays the ACME boss, and the trailer features Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck with the human cast.
  • Producer James Gunn, director Dave Green and writer Samy Burch lead the project, which draws on a 1990 New Yorker satire.
  • Warner Bros. finished the roughly $70 million film but shelved it in 2023, and Ketchup Entertainment bought it in 2025 for about $50 million to take it to theaters.
