According to Variety, “The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie” is currently in production to premiere in the second quarter of 2024. One suspects WB is all the happier to have another film to add to its 2024 slate at this stage, lest it should need to do some major rescheduling as a result of the dual writers and actors strikes of 2023.
Looking at the current schedule, there’s a nice open space for “The Day the Earth Blew Up” in April 2024, which would give it some room to breathe before the animated “The Garfield Movie” (the one with Chris Pratt, in case you had scrubbed that from your memory) and Pixar’s “Inside Out 2” are due to arrive the following May and June, respectively. The lack of direct competition would also make it easier for the “Looney Tunes” flick to avoid getting lost in the bustle, allowing them to better corner the market on moviegoers in the mood for some animated mayhem.
