Porky Pig and Daffy Duck are clearly not cut out for the real estate business, as hilariously demonstrated in a new preview clip from the upcoming theatrical release The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie.
The project focuses on Porky and Daffy (both voiced by Eric Bauza) learning that aliens are plotting to overtake the planet. The pair must put their differences aside and help save the world.
In this clip, Porky and Daffy are cutting countless corners while attempting to prepare their home ahead of an inspection. “Well, Porky, we’re all finished,” Daffy says triumphantly. “Here’s to passing this inspection and living another year just the way we like it.” Porky, though, isn’t completely on board with it.
The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie is set to premiere Tuesday at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival. The film marks the first fully animated Looney Tunes feature to debut with a theatrical run.
The film’s release follows Warner Bros.’ decision not to release Coyote vs. Acme, a hybrid of live-action and CG animation centering on Looney Tunes favorite Wile E. Coyote and starring John Cena and Will Forte. Warner Bros. infamously shelved the finished film so they could take a tax writeoff.
Director Pete Browngardt’s sci-fi comedy from Warner Bros. Animation is scheduled for release later this year, but there’s no specific release date yet.
