How ‘Coyote vs. Acme’ Was Rescued From Oblivion — and Blew Up in David Zaslav’s Face

The Looney Tunes courtroom comedy Coyote vs. Acme was initially shelved as a tax writeoff by Warner Bros. Discovery. However, director Dave Green successfully rescued the ambitious project from oblivion. The film is described as a clever and sweet comedy that explores the evils of corporate greed, focusing on underdogs fighting against deep-pocketed adversaries who disregard quality. Critics have praised the movie for being smart and funny, marking a victory over the corporate decisions of David Zaslav.
