Overview
- Ketchup Entertainment released a poster and brief teaser Wednesday timed to U.S. Tax Day that signals the full trailer will arrive next week.
- The clip jokes about Warner Bros. Discovery’s 2023 choice to shelve the finished film for a reported $30 million tax write-off, showing Wile E. Coyote flipping a sign from “Happy Tax Day” to “Check Your Write-Offs.”
- The film is scheduled to open in theaters on August 28, 2026 after Ketchup Entertainment acquired worldwide rights last year.
- Dave Green directs from Samy Burch’s screenplay with producers James Gunn and Chris deFaria, and the cast features Will Forte and John Cena alongside Lana Condor, P.J. Byrne, Tone Bell, Martha Kelly, and Luis Guzmán.
- The project adapts Ian Frazier’s 1990 New Yorker piece as a live-action and animation blend in the style of Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, and its return has become a high-profile test of how studios treat completed films.
