Coyote vs. Acme film release

Overview

The film ‘Coyote vs. Acme’ is scheduled for theatrical release in September 2026. The production, which costs approximately $70 million, was previously shelved by Warner Bros. as part of a tax write-off strategy, a move that triggered public protests and rescue efforts from fans and creators.

The hybrid live-action and animation comedy follows Wile E. Coyote as he sues the ACME Corporation for faulty products. The plot involves attorney Kevin Avery, played by Will Forte, and explores a subplot regarding ‘Project Sisyphus’, suggesting ACME used animated characters as test subjects. The film features a cast including Will Forte, Lana Condor, and John Cena.
