* ''Coyote vs. Acme'', a [[RogerRabbitEffect live-action/animation movie]] about [[WesternAnimation/WileECoyoteAndTheRoadRunner Wile E. Coyote]] suing Acme for their backfiring goods (based in part on a 1990 piece by humorist Ian Frazier in ''Magazine/TheNewYorker''), with Creator/JohnCena as Acme's lawyer and Creator/WillForte as Wile's lawyer. In November 2023, it was unexpectedly shelved after being completed, despite scoring well with test audiences, with speculation that a new regime of studio executives wanted to bury it because it was greenlighted by the executives they replaced, or the studio wanted to claim it as a tax writeoff. Thanks to public backlash from fans, filmmakers and even Congress, Creator/WarnerBros was forced to unshelve it and allow it to be shopped to other distributors. The film was offered to Creator/{{Netflix}}, Creator/PrimeVideo, and Creator/{{Paramount}}, the last of whom offered to give it a theatrical release. On New Year's Eve, voice actor Creator/EricBauza unveiled the film's first official screenshot on his Website/{{Twitter}} account and implied a 2024 release. Unfortunately, in February 2024 [[https://www.thewrap.com/coyote-vs-acme-update-offers-warner-bros/ news broke]] that Warner Bros had rejected all offers for the film, reportedly [[https://www.indiewire.com/news/analysis/coyote-vs-acme-write-off-anticompetitive-1234953523/ setting the film's $70 million budget as a bare minimum that they'd even consider selling it for]], and would keep the film on the shelf, possibly even outright ''deleting'' it so it could never be released.
