Coyote Vs. Acme Director Devastated By Film’s Treatment
Adding to the criticism, UK composer Daniel Pemberton, known for his work on Warner Bros. films such as Ocean’s Eight, Birds of Prey, and The Man from U.N.C.L.E., condemned the studio’s behavior in canceling the completed Coyote Vs. Acme.
Pemberton emphasized the impact on creatives, stating, “This behavior is not only terrible, but any half-decent creative is gonna think twice signing up huge chunks of their life to throw everything they have at a project from studios that seem pretty cavalier about ever letting that work get seen… WB playing a terrible long game.”
His sentiments were echoed by voice actor Bazua, who criticized the film’s cancellation on Instagram, attributing it to corporate decisions and highlighting the significant gap this leaves in the industry, especially in light of recent strikes.
Time will tell what happens with Coyote Vs. Acme, but at least for now, the graph is pointing up.
