Warner Bros is canceling yet another film, and fans are letting the studio have it on social media.
It is a tumultuous time to be aWarner Brosfilmmaker. The studio has axed numerous projects, includingCoyote vs Acme, Scoob! Holiday Haunt, andBatgirl, as they consideredcanceling them more profitablethan releasing them.
This is despite the fact that those films were more or less completed. Now, Puck is reporting that Warner Bros willno longer be distributing Fixed, the upcoming animated feature from industry legend Geendy Tartakovsky.
Naturally, fans are furious at the prospect of seeing another film axed, and they’re tearing Warner Bros apart on social media.
Fans are wondering aloud why the film isn’t being released, with some outrightwonderingjust how often this will keep happening. Others are frustrated at this being yet another cartoon axed, an especially sore point coming just days after the Cartoon Network website wasshut downentirely.
Fixed is an animated story about a dog having one last night out with his friends after learning he will be neutered in the morning. The project boasts an all-star cast, including Adam DeVine, Idris Elba, Kathryn Hahn, and Fred Armisen.
With Warner Bros opting out of releasing the film, distribution responsibilities now return to Sony Pictures, who will have to find a new distributor. This is similar to what happened with Coyote vs Acme earlier this year.
Although Coyote vs. Acme was shopped to multiple distributors amidst a groundswell of support from fans, no one ultimately picked up the film. It remains unreleased, though there are still some rumblings thatdiscussions continueabout a release.
