It’s been awhile since the LOONEY TUNES tried their hands in the realm of cinema, but they are all set to return in a new film scripted by SNL cast member Jenny Slate. The film is going to be produced by David Katzenberg and Seth Grahame-Smith via their KatzSmith production company. Over the last few decades the Looney Tunes have had mixed success, with 1997’s SPACE JAM reaching $230 million worldwide, but their 2003 effort LOONEY TUNES: BACK IN ACTION only totalled $68 million worldwide. Was it the quality, was it the timing, or was it that Michael Jordan is a bigger attraction to people of all ages than Brendan Fraser? No matter how this film turns out, it can’t be any worse than the ill-conceived LOONATICS UNLEASHED TV series.
