Coyote vs. Acme Opens Modestly, Leaving Looney Tunes' Movie Future in Limbo

TL;DR Summary
Coyote vs. Acme debuted to $15.9 million domestically, finishing second behind Spider-Man: Brand New Day; Warner Bros. invested about $70 million, while Ketchup Entertainment acquired rights for $50 million, giving the IP a lifeline. While strong reviews and an A CinemaScore could help it hold and push toward around $50 million worldwide, the film’s modest opening and uncertain overseas performance keep the future of Looney Tunes cinema projects uncertain, with WB still controlling the IP.
