Meanwhile, fans also made fanart campaigning for the film to be released and attacking CEO David Zaslav, and even Texas congressman Joaquin Castro got in on the criticism, calling Warner Bros.' write-off practices "predatory" and "anti-competitive" and calling for the Justice Department to investigate the studio. Eventually, four days later on November 13, 2023, after enduring so much of the negative feedback, Warner Bros. finally accepted defeat and reversed their decision, unshelving the film and allowing the crew to shop it to other distributors. Then, on New Year's Eve, Creator/EricBauza took to social media to reveal the first screenshot of the film and implied its well-deserved release in 2024.
