The cancellation of the completed comedy movie 'Coyote vs. Acme' sparked an outcry. Three years later, the Looney Tunes blend of cartoon and live action is being released, via independent distributor Ketchup Entertainment.
Director Dave Green, inspired by 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit?', had completed the editing on the film. The project, based on an Ian Frazier column from The New Yorker, was seen as an audacious comic gambit with high hopes and good audience test scores.
However, days before Will Forte, who stars as Wile E. Coyote’s attorney, could see the film, Warner Bros. canceled it entirely, shocking the Hollywood community.
《Coyote vs. Acme》在华纳兄弟取消后发布
完成的喜剧电影《Coyote vs. Acme》引发了公众的抗议。三年后，这部融合了卡通和真人表演的电影将通过独立发行商Ketchup Entertainment发布。
导演Dave Green受《谁陷害了兔子罗杰》的启发，完成了影片的编辑。该项目基于《纽约客》上的Ian Frazier专栏，被视为一次大胆的喜剧尝试，寄予厚望，观众测试评分也很好。
然而，就在Will Forte（饰演Wile E. Coyote的律师）即将观看影片的几天前，华纳兄弟公司完全取消了该片，令好莱坞震惊。
