Coyote vs. Acme Gets Theatrical Release Date After Long Delay

After years of uncertainty, the long-awaited live-action/animated hybrid film *Coyote vs. Acme* will finally be hitting theaters worldwide on August 28, 2026. Initially finished filming in 2022 and set to premiere on HBO Max, the film faced significant setbacks after Warner Bros. shelved its release in 2023 to focus on theatrical releases. The movie, which stars John Cena and Lana Condor, follows Wile E. Coyote as he takes Acme to court over the company’s faulty products. The film features multiple animated cameos, including Bugs Bunny as an informant, and a sheep on the jury. Eric Bauza voices multiple characters, including Bugs Bunny. Despite its finished production, the movie was left in limbo until March 2025, when Ketchup Entertainment signed a deal to release it in theaters. The decision comes after strong campaigns by filmmakers and audiences who were eager to see the project completed and shared with the world. *Coyote vs. Acme* has generated much anticipation, especially after IGN’s deep dive into the film’s troubled production journey.
