Ketchup Entertainment announced today the wide North American release date for its latest theatrical acquisition, The Day The Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie, which is slated for Friday, February 28th, 2025. The critically-acclaimed film produced by Warner Bros. Animation made its world premiere to a sold-out enthusiastic, international audience at the prestigious Annecy International Animation Film Festival in June earlier this year. Ketchup Entertainment’s presentation of The Day The Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie will make its North American premiere this Friday, October 18 at the Animation Is Film festival, considered an Oscar launchpad for films in the race for Best Animated Feature, with plans for an Academy Awards qualifying run in 2024.

One of the greatest comedic duos in history, Porky Pig and Daffy Duck make their hilarious return to the big screen in The Day The Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie, as unlikely heroes and Earth’s only hope when faced with the threat of alien invasion. The animated sci-fi comedy adventure is a richly-crafted story told on a scope and scale that’s out of this world, with all the laugh-out-loud gags, vibrant visuals, and beloved characters who make the Looney Tunes so iconic.

Gareth West, CEO of Ketchup Entertainment said, “For generations, the Looney Tunes have held a soft spot in the hearts of fans the world over, including my own. It’s a true pleasure to bring into theaters Peter Browngardt’s hilariously smart, emotional, and gorgeously rendered story for fans and movie-lovers of all ages to experience a wholly new and original cinematic adventure with our friends, Porky and Daffy.”

Presented by Ketchup Entertainment and produced by Warner Bros. Animation, The Day The Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie is directed by Pete Browngardt and written by Darrick Bachman, Pete Browngardt, Kevin Costello, Andrew Dickman, David Gemmill, Alex Kirwan, Ryan Kramer, Jason Reicher, Michael Ruocco, Johnny Ryan, and Eddie Trigueros.
