It’s almost unbelievable that the 2025 movie lineup boasts the debut of an original animated film in the Looney Tunes series, marking a significant milestone for this beloved franchise. Although some fans may still feel disheartened about the uncertain future of Coyote vs. Acme, Eric Bauza, who plays a key role, remains optimistic and unfazed by these developments.
The upcoming release of “The Day the Earth Blew Up” has given the Canadian voice actor renewed optimism for not just one, but two abandoned “Tunes” productions. With the return of beloved characters like Daffy Duck, Porky, and Petunia Pig in a sci-fi adventure reminiscent of classics, the film’s acquisition by distributor Ketchup Entertainment has sparked a hopeful conversation.
While Coyote vs. Acme Has Been A Hot Topic, Another Cancelled Looney Tunes Project Needs The Spotlight
During our lengthy discussion with Mr. Bauza, the subject at hand turned out to be “The Day the Earth Blew Up ” and its successful launch. However, as he interjected various “Tunes” voices into our talk, it became evident that we needed to discuss “Coyote vs. Acme“. In simpler terms, while discussing his book, Mr. Bauza occasionally brought in different character voices, which led us to switch the topic to the classic tale of “Coyote and Acme”.
Yet, it slipped my mind that the Looney Tunes project, which is set for a comeback, was something Eric Bauza had mentioned to TopMob as well.
It’s amusing to reflect on an alternative project we were once working on called “Bye Bye Bunny.” In that project, I had the chance to perform my vocals. I even tried out for it and secured roles for both Daffy and Bugs. Who knows if it might return if this one succeeds? It could or it might not, but we’ll keep moving forward and focus on new projects. If given the opportunity, I’d be thrilled to add another song to the universe of this franchise.
If you’re among those who know about Batman: Caped Crusader shifting from HBO Max to Prime Video, it was around the same period when the decision to cancel Bye Bye Bunny was made. Originally planned as a Max original film, the plot revolved around Bugs Bunny retiring and Daffy Duck seizing the opportunity to step into the limelight that Bugs left behind.
As a devoted cinephile, I must admit, my evaluation of this project hinges solely on the excerpt from the “Bye Bye Bunny” audition that brought Eric Bauza into the spotlight.
To me, creating a musical based on “Looney Tunes” would be just as exciting as seeing a revival of the animated musical “Cats Don’t Dance”. However, the expensive risk Warner Bros. took in 1997 with their “Looney Tunes” project serves as a reminder that major studios often face challenges when investing in projects that aren’t considered commercially viable, as Eric Bauza has frequently pointed out.
In The Face Of Warner Bros. Shakeups, Eric Bauza Feels Hopeful With The Day The Earth Blew Up
In our ongoing discussion, The Day the Earth Blew Up character employed tales such as the Coyote vs. Acme’s tax deduction to illustrate his bafflement over how studios operate. This confusion, however, has not dampened his enthusiasm for reviving director Dave Green’s combined live-action and CGI project, along with bringing the film Bye Bye Bunny to life in production.
In a manner similar to how Coyote vs. Acme might have felt during turbulent times, Eric Bauza voiced his concerns about the future of Looney Tunes. To him, the most terrifying scenario wouldn’t be canceling a project, but rather letting it gather dust, potentially preventing any new tales from being told.
The sentiments expressed back then remain relevant, as during our conversation, the creator of Daffy and Porky’s characters shared his reflections on the subsequent uproar caused by that decision. To counter such negative thoughts, Bauza ended the discussion with a glimmer of optimism in the form of this nugget:
Or more casually:
During our chat, the guy who voices Daffy and Porky looked back on the drama that followed his big decision. To balance out any gloomy thoughts, Bauza wrapped up the topic with a hint of hope:
It’s clear that the movie titled “[The Day The Earth Blew Up]” is in production, which is certainly a reason to rejoice! Here’s hoping that the message conveyed by this film will be… not only is it being produced, but it’s of high quality as well.
I wholeheartedly endorse “The Day the Earth Blew Up” as not just a great movie, but also an authentic Looney Tunes adventure reminiscent of when we first encountered the Looney Tunes Cartoons series following Max’s subscription. As an advocate for both these postponed productions, I’m eager to rally behind this film. Yet, I can relate to a recent video showing a certain Coyote protesting at Warner Bros., as it mirrors my own feelings.
To breathe fresh life into both “Coyote vs. Acme” and “Bye Bye Bunny,” here’s a straightforward solution. Purchase tickets to watch “The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie” this coming weekend, and feel free to share your delight for it with others!
