The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie has been acquired by Ketchup Entertainment for North American distribution.

Directed by Pete Browngardt, The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie premiered at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival this past June. The movie sees Daffy Duck and Porky Pig attempt to save Earth from an alien invasion.

Ketchup Entertainment has now officially acquired the distribution rights to Warner Bros. Animation’s new Looney Tunes movie.

“The Day the Earth Blew Up is a historical moment for the Looney Tunes franchise, and we are proud to be partnering with Warner Bros. Animation to bring this film to audiences theatrically,” said Ketchup Entertainment CEO Gareth West. “We cannot wait for audiences of all ages to experience one of the smartest animated films in recent years.”

Fred Hedman of GFM Animation, who is handling worldwide distribution sales for the film, added, “Gareth’s enthusiasm for Warner Bros. Animation’s spectacular, Looney adventure persuaded us that Ketchup Entertainment were the right partners for releasing the film in North America. We’re looking forward to continuing to work with the team as they prepare for audiences to embrace Porky Pig and Daffy Duck on the big screen.”
