Coyote vs. Acme: John Cena Talks About The Movie's Comeback
USATue Jun 24 2025
John Cena finally spoke about the revival of Coyote vs. Acme, months after the movie was saved from being shelved forever. The movie, which also stars Will Forte and Lana Condor, was almost lost when Warner Bros. Discovery decided to put it on hold to get a tax break. But after people complained, the studio changed its mind and let the filmmakers find a new way to show the movie to audiences.
Cena talked about how happy he was that the movie might finally be seen. He said it was tough when the movie was put on hold, but he understood why it happened. He also said the movie is a lot of fun and hopes more people get to see it. Cena recently watched the movie for the first time and said it was a blast.
The movie was saved when Ketchup Entertainment agreed to show it in theaters. There's no official date yet, but it's expected to come out in 2026. Cena is not the only one excited about the movie's comeback. Will Forte and Lana Condor have also said it's some of the best work they've ever done.
The whole situation shows how big companies sometimes make decisions that hurt the people who work hard on movies. While tax write-offs might help the studio's money situation, they can leave actors and crew members feeling disappointed. But in this case, the movie's revival is a happy ending for everyone involved.
