Will Forte represents Wile E. Coyote in 'Coyote vs. Acme' final trailer

The final trailer for Coyote vs. Acme has arrived.

Ketchup Entertainment has released the newest trailer for the upcoming live-action and animated hybrid movie.

Iconic Looney Tunes characters star alongside Will Forte and John Cena in the film, which "centers on Wile E. Coyote as he takes legal action against the Acme Corporation for the countless faulty products that have hindered his relentless pursuit of the Road Runner," according to its synopsis.

The trailer finds Wile E. Coyote having the idea to hire a lawyer to sue the Acme Corporation for all the harm it has caused him.

"Have you ever set a big stack of TNT on the road hoping to blow up your nemesis but the detonator itself explodes? Have you ever pulled the ripcord of your parachute, and only a bunch of silverware comes out? It's not your fault. ACME is evil," Forte's Kevin Avery says in an attorney ad Wile E. Coyote watches.

Later on, he describes Wile E. Coyote as "one of the most hardworking people I've ever met."

"He would never think of quitting," Forte says. "Everyone should be inspired by that."

Coyote vs. Acme was shelved by Warner Bros. Pictures in 2023. In 2024, Warner Bros. Discovery wrote off $115 million of its content as part of an earnings filing it called a “strategic realignment plan associated with the Warner Bros. Pictures Animation group.” It's presumed Coyote vs. Acme was one of the projects affected by the decision. Ketchup Entertainment acquired the film in March 2025.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Coyote vs. Acme blasts into theaters on Aug. 28.

I know I'll see you all there. Because this is better than half the crap coming out of Hollywood lately and by my last post you all grew up with this character and were wondering if this movie would ever be made.

Warner Brothers made a mistake not releasing this flick because it is gonna be huge!

Maybe not Billiond dollar huge but it will be a big money make...but since Paramount now controls Warner brothers...hmmm!

I see it as another step by the left to confuse who is good and who is evil. The Coyote tries to carry out premeditated murder all the time. And he presumably will get paid for it. Sounds similar to real life now!

..and yet the self proclaimed ‘Genius’ kept on buying from the same company that had failed him numerous other times! Proof that the coyote was a Democrat.

The Looney Tunes gang was determined not to be PC because of all of the cartoon violence. Now we all knew not to do that to anyone, but it was funny in a cartoon. So, cartoon characters experiencing many violent mishaps got replaced by toilet humor, probably because the animators went woke. Then when the kids got older, they played violent video games, which led some to kill real people. I say bring back the old Looney Tunes gang and their unbelievable antics.

And yes, the ACME company is responsible for Mr. Coyote's damages.

Very clever idea.

Agree. If it does well, sequels.

Foghorn Leghorn and the dog

Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam

Etc.

Whenever I listen to Steve Bannon, I always think of Foghorn Leghorn.

Am I the only one?

The “Coyote vs Acme” joke has been around for a while - I’m sure I have a mimeographed copy of the original letter in an old work box somewhere. So not original - but making a movie out of it should be interesting.
