Coyote vs. Acme, final trailer debuts

moviesJul 23, 2026524,931

Ketchup Entertainment released the final trailer for Coyote vs. ACME, a live-action/animation hybrid that opens in theaters on August 28. The film follows Wile E. Coyote as he sues ACME, teaming up with billboard accident lawyer Kevin Avery, played by Will Forte, against corporate counsel Buddy Crane, played by John Cena. Lana Condor, Tone Bell, P.J. Byrne, Luis Guzmán and Martha Kelly appear in the live-action cast, while Looney Tunes veterans Eric Bauza and Jeff Bergman provide the toons' voices. Based on Ian Frazier's 1990 New Yorker article, the movie was produced by Warner Bros. Pictures Animation, directed by Dave Green, written by Samy Burch with a screen story by James Gunn and Jeremy Slater, and produced by Chris DeFaria and James Gunn. The final trailer emphasizes the film's cartoonish destruction montage and legal-comedy premise, positioning the movie as a long-awaited Looney Tunes theatrical outing. The film's August 28 release is the next concrete step for a project that nearly faced cancellation before reaching theaters.

I'm so glad that John Cena has been able to steer his career like this, absolutely great work in every movie he touches

Will Forte is so funny man

On top of everything, we're being trolled by the credits

The people making this movie found the time and effort to - find out there was a train line called the Railrunner - convince them to use it for filming - Use an enormous amount of CGI - Fight off all attempts to do it somewhere else All for a joke about 5 people will get. Enormous respect for them

Fellow Coyotes: Rejoice, after this we will no longer have to hide in the floorboards and sneak into Quiznos after they close.

Jess McLaughlin, PhD (they/them)45

Umm can I please draw your attention to the fact that the train hitting Wile E Coyote is the New Mexico Rail Runner Express? They can take my money *now*

Oh hell yes! Can’t wait to see this with the kiddo

youtu.be/kMsiD1Nky5I Coyote vs Acme LET’S GO!! I will also remind people, even if theres been good press and the trailer looks great, if the movie turns out not great, THAT WAS NEVER THE POINT. No one should erasing films for taxes without given people a chance to see them. LETS EMBARRASS WB

Am I the only one who thinks it's ironic that a movie that was almost destroyed by corporate greed and corruption is about corporate greed and corruption?

I mean, ideally I'd love if the movie was great, but the fact that it finally sees the light of day after the scum at WB tried to remove it is the bigger accomplishment

Loved the Avengers countdown clock at the end

I’m not seeing a movie just to beat a dead horse into the ground or out of spite. I’m seeing this movie because I love the looney tunes and I’m interested to see how this movie turns out. I really want to see what Dave green and his crew put together.

Genie Lauren7

Okay, where is the Batgirl movie???

I got my advanced ticket to go see Coyote vs Acme. Guys, we complained, and protested, and said clever things on the internet. Now the movie is coming out and it's time to put our money where our mouth is and support this film. #GoSeeCoyoteVsAcme

The final trailer for Coyote Vs Acme just dropped today and seeing this finally start to come out is so amazing to me. The film really looks hilarious and a great use of the Looney Tunes and I'm so grateful that it's coming to theaters after all it went through. I'm so hyped!

can you believe warner bros thought this wasn't worth releasing

Elinhas26

Se eu fosse de Hollywood eu já tava fazendo tracking desse filme pra ver se ele vai vender bem pq sinceramente temos chances do filme lucrar a ponto de calar a boca da Warner (mas vai saber)

Sr. Izzo Chaminé25

Eu acho que um dos grandes segredos que fazem Coyote vs Papa-Léguas ser o maior desenho animado de todos os tempos. É que o Chuck Jones conseguia por o Coyote no papel simultâneo de predador e underdog. A gente que ver o Jerry resistir ao Tom, e o Piu-Piu resistir ao Frajola, mas o Coyote não.

HA HA HA! Wouldn't be proper Wile E. Coyote if he didn't get hit by a train at some point... Shout out to Rail Runner!

Looney Tunes para sempre ❤️

Eric “undead metaphor” WVGG11

cracked up at that last Cena bit my homeland of the American Southwest has basically two media properties, Breaking Bad and Roadrunner cartoons. Never would have believed Wile E. Coyote would get his own flick and I couldn't be more excited 🌵 🏜️ /anvil-emoji

Looks great. The Doomsday countdown at the end was perfect

This looks fantastic. But also. ALSO. The "A" in the Acme logo is AN ANVIL. #graphicdesign

After decades of being blown up and crushed by Acme's products, Wile E. Coyote (Genius) finally fights back. Check out the final trailer for Coyote vs. Acme, coming to theaters August 21.

It would be really funny if COYOTE VS ACME made a lot of money, prompting a sequel, and very last-minute merchandise agreements.

I think Coyote VS Acme is legitimately the only film I was actively looking forward to seeing all year. I can't believe how soon it is to released, and so grateful that it is!

I *hate* movie theaters. But I am so going to see this in one.

@gabea113.bsky.social

I’ll say this again, go see this film that nearly got shelved by stupid Zaslav in theaters. It will show the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad Zaslav and WB executives that not releasing Coyote vs. ACME is an enormous mistake.

I'm calling it now that two fantastic things will happen on August 28th: 1. ‘COYOTE VS. ACME’ is released. 2. 'It' will happen.

It would be marketing GOLD if the two things were related.

John Hudgens1

It's coming out the day I leave for DragonCon - trying to figure out if I try and make one of the earliest shows that afternoon and *then* drive to Atlanta, wait until after the con, or find a theater in Atlanta *during* the con... Decisions, decisions... :)

Well now I’m just going to blame you if ‘It’ doesn’t happen….

Forget "The Odyssey". If you only see ONE movie at the cinema this year (okay, one of a small handful), then make it THIS one. See "Coyote vs. ACME" And stick it to The Man. (And you know which "man" we mean...) #FilmSky #MovieSky #Films #Movies youtu.be/kMsiD1Nky5I?... via @YouTube

Warning: I've seen stills, coyote is darker than he's supposed to be

It depends…is it set in Alomogordo, circa 1945?

Ryan W. Mead

@rwmead.bsky.social

#CoyoteVsACME Final Trailer: this one does the best job so far of setting the tone for the film, best summed up by the line “does anybody care at all what happens to the coyote?” Also ironic that Mr. You Can’t See Me gets an extended “I taut I taw” joke.
