Coyote vs. ACME Lana Condor Interview: A Nostalgic Return to Looney Tunes

There are some movies that instantly take you back, and Coyote vs. Acme did exactly that for me.

Growing up, Saturday mornings meant a bowl of cereal, pajamas, and Looney Tunes on TV. Bugs Bunny, Road Runner and, of course, Wile E. Coyote were such a simple part of childhood, but seeing those characters again on the big screen brought back memories I hadn’t thought about in years.

Coyote vs. Acme takes that nostalgia and gives it a completely new spin. After years of ACME products spectacularly backfiring on him, Wile E. Coyote finally decides he’s had enough and takes ACME to court. The film mixes live action with the classic Looney Tunes humor we grew up with, while giving the story plenty of heart.

Starring Will Forte, John Cena and Lana Condor, the movie finally arrives in U.S. theaters August 28, 2026.

I also had the opportunity to sit down with Lana Condor and talk about the film, the world of Looney Tunes and being part of a movie connected to characters that have been loved for generations.

Watch my interview with Lana Condor below:

What surprised me most about Coyote vs. Acme was how nostalgic it felt without feeling stuck in the past. It reminded me why these characters have lasted for so long. They’re funny, a little chaotic and somehow still just as lovable.

For me, it felt like being a kid on a Saturday morning again, only this time I traded the cereal bowl for a movie theater seat.

Coyote vs. Acme is in theaters August 28.

Space Jam: A New Legacy Hits Theaters & HBO Max July 16th

Where are all my Loony Tunes fans?

As a kid growing up in the 80’s, I remember getting up early in the mornings to turn on the tube. I would sit in the kitchen with a bowl of Apple Jax, and watch my favorite cartoons. Some of favorite cartoon shorts featured characters including Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Sylvester, Tweety, Road Runner, Wile E. Coyote, Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, Taz, Marvin the Martian, Beaky Buzzard and my all time favorite Speedy Gonzales!

So when Warner Bros called invited us to screen Space Jam: A New Legacy, and celebrate the film with an incredible interactive experience, we were beside ourselves! I realized that this film would bring back some of my childhood memories and give my family an opportunity to enjoy an afternoon of shooting hoops.

Disclosure: Thank you Warner Bros Pictures for inviting us to screen Space Jam: A New Legacy. All opinions are my own.

After screening this film, we hit a special pop-up Space Jam experience and explored the ServerVerse, played games, took photos, met Bugs Bunny and Lola Bunny!

Synopsis:

Superstar LeBron James and his young son, Dom, get trapped in digital space by a rogue AI. To get home safely, LeBron teams up with Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and the rest of the Looney Tunes gang for a high-stakes basketball game against the AI’s digitized champions of the court — a powered-up roster called the Goon Squad.

NBA Lakers super star LeBron James takes on a role of a loving father who like many of us, wants his children to follow in his footsteps. His son Cedric (Dom James) however, wants a different path. The new film has a great message for both parents and kids!

My takeaway was, that we as parents should support our children’s dreams, and help them be the best version of themselves. I love this!

This family fun film offers entertaining moments that adults can enjoy with their children.
