Coyote vs Acme Sets Digital Release Date

Coyote vs. Acme, the Looney Tunes film that Warner Bros. Discovery shelved in 2023 as a tax writeoff, will become available for digital purchase on September 29, 2026, following a theatrical run that has grossed more than $80 million worldwide. The animated-live-action hybrid debuted in theaters on August 28, 2026, nearly three years after the studio set it aside. Warner Bros. eventually reversed course and allowed the filmmakers to seek other distributors, and Ketchup Entertainment acquired the rights in March 2025 for $50 million. Digital purchases will open at midnight ET on September 29, which corresponds to 9 p.m. PT on September 28, with preorders listed at $24.99 on Prime Video and Apple TV. The film remains in theaters as the digital release approaches. Box office figures vary across reports. Three accounts cite a worldwide gross of more than $80 million, while another report says the film passed the $100 million mark. Through its fourth weekend, ending September 20, the film earned $4.5 million over three days for a domestic total of $54.8 million, according to Box Office Mojo figures cited in reporting.
