- Debuting this weekend, the live-action-animation hybrid Coyote vs. Acme opened at No. 2 with $15.4 million in ticket sales on 3,575 North American screens.
- Warner Bros. originally shelved the completed project in 2023 for a $30 million tax write-off; following public outcry, Ketchup Entertainment acquired distribution rights last year.
- Critics and audiences praised the comedy, which holds a 95% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and an A CinemaScore; starring John Cena and Will Forte, it follows Wile E. Coyote suing the Acme Corporation.
- The newcomer outperformed The Odyssey and The Dog Stars, a new drama from director Ridley Scott, while Spider-Man: Brand New Day maintained first place for its fifth consecutive weekend.
- Industry analyst David A. Gross noted the film's strong reception should drive ancillary business, positioning the release to recoup its investment through streaming and home video markets.
