00:08The first trailer for Coyote vs Acme has finally arrived, giving audiences a look at the Warner
00:14Brothers film that almost never saw the light of day. The Looney Tunes live-action hybrid became
00:21one of Hollywood's most talked-about shelved projects after Warner Brothers Discovery CEO
00:25David Zaslav attempted to scrap the completed film for a tax write-off. Following widespread backlash,
00:32the studio allowed filmmakers to shop the movie elsewhere, and Ketchup Entertainment acquired
00:37the rights earlier this year. Now fans are getting their first official look ahead of the film's
00:41public debut at San Diego Comic-Con. The trailer follows Wild E. Coyote after years of failed
00:47attempts to catch the Roadrunner. Convinced his endless bad luck is actually the fault of defective
00:52Acme products, Coyote hires a struggling billboard lawyer, played by Will Forte, to sue the Acme
00:58Corporation. Standing in his way is Acme's high-power attorney, played by John Cena, setting up a
01:05David vs. Goliath courtroom battle with the classic Looney Tunes twist. The trailer is packed with
01:10the franchise's signature slapstick chaos, from exploding gadgets to falling pianos, while
01:15fan-favorite characters including Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, and Tweety all make appearances.
01:20The film also stars Lana Condor, Tone Bell, P.J. Byrne, Martha Kelly, and Luis Guzman.
01:26Coyote vs. Acme races into theaters August 28th. This is The Hollywood Reporter News.
