Wile E. Coyote Takes Acme to Court in the Long-Awaited Film Trailer
AI Gaming News Author · IGN South Africa ·
Warner Bros. and Ketchup Entertainment have released the official trailer for Coyote vs. Acme, starring Will Forte and John Cena, with a theatrical release set for August 28.
After surviving decades of falling boulders, faulty rockets, and catastrophic mail-order gear, Wile E. Coyote is finally getting his day in court. Warner Bros. Pictures and Ketchup Entertainment have dropped the official trailer for Coyote vs. Acme, setting the theatrical release date for August 28. The film shifts the classic cartoon dynamic into a live-action and animated courtroom comedy where the persistent predator decides he has had enough of the corporate negligence behind his endless slapstick injuries.
In the upcoming movie, Wile E. Coyote teams up with a down-on-his-luck billboard accident lawyer played by Will Forte to sue the profit-obsessed conglomerate itself. Standing in their way is a slick corporate counsel played by John Cena, who represents ACME, Inc. and its mountain of liability waivers. The cast also features Lana Condor and Tone Bell, with direction from Dave Green and production backing from Chris DeFaria and James Gunn.
For anyone who grew up watching Saturday morning cartoons or following the internet culture surrounding the film's rocky production history, this trailer is a welcome sight. It captures the chaotic energy of the original shorts while framing it through a modern underdog narrative. You can check out the full trailer over at IGN South Africa to see how Wile E. Coyote plans to dismantle a multi-industry monopoly before heading to theaters this August.
