The Day the Earth Blew Up Director Explains His Looney Tunes Movie

Filmmaker Peter Browngardt speaks to MovieWeb’s Sal Cento about directing the first full-length animated Looney Tunes movie to be released in theaters. He explains why Daffy Duck and Porky Pig are at the heart of the film, and discusses the state of animation today, especially with Warner Bros. shutting down or removing animated projects and channels devoted to them. The Day the Earth Blew Up had its North American premiere on Oct. 19 at the Animation Is Film Festival and hits theaters Feb. 28, 2025.

In the film, due to a series of antics at the bubblegum factory, Daffy Duck and Porky Pig discover a secret alien plot to take over the Earth via mind-control. The duo must work together to stop the aliens, while trying to avoid driving each other insane.
