Warner Bros Cancels Release of Animated Film Fixed

Warner Bros. Discovery has opted not to release Genndy Tartakovsky's adult animated film 'Fixed,' reverting distribution rights back to Sony Pictures Animation, which is now seeking a new distributor. The film follows Bull, a dog facing neutering, and features a voice cast including Idris Elba, Adam Devine, and Kathryn Hahn. This decision comes amid Warner Bros.'s stringent approach to projects, especially following significant financial losses, including a $9.1 billion impairment charge. Tartakovsky, known for hits like 'Samurai Jack' and 'Hotel Transylvania,' previously signed an exclusive deal with Warner Bros. Animation. While 'Fixed' may not have broad appeal due to its adult themes, it is expected to find an audience, potentially through platforms like Netflix. The film's shelving follows a trend at Warner Bros. of canceling projects, including notable titles like 'Batgirl' and 'Scoob! Holiday Haunt.'
