Ketchup Entertainment Negotiates $50 Million Deal for Coyote vs. Acme

Ketchup Entertainment is reportedly in negotiations to acquire the shelved Warner Bros. film 'Coyote vs. Acme' for around $50 million, with a potential theatrical release planned for 2026. Initially canceled for tax reasons, the film, which stars Will Forte and John Cena, has garnered positive test screenings and a strong emotional response from early viewers. The acquisition would follow Ketchup's successful release of another Warner Bros. film, 'The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie,' which opened to $3.1 million. Ketchup has gained a reputation for reviving abandoned projects, further solidifying its presence in the industry. If the deal finalizes, 'Coyote vs. Acme' could join Ketchup's expanding roster of films and mark a significant triumph for the company. The film's premise involves Wile E. Coyote hiring a lawyer to take on the Acme Corporation, highlighting themes of friendship and perseverance.
