WarnerMedia announced Tuesday morning that its new streaming service HBO Max will be heading its way onto our screens starting May 27, assuming they don't take a wrong turn at Albuquerque first. That's right, Bug Bunny, Daffy Duck, and the rest of the Looney Tunes gang are back with all-new animated shorts in Looney Tunes Cartoons. Produced by Warner Bros. Animation and featuring a talented group of voice cast members including Eric Bauza, Jeff Bergman, and Bob Bergen, the 80 eleven-minute episodes are a return to the classic look of the original run combined with themes and storylines that reflect a modern audience. Executive produced by Pete Browngardt (Uncle Grandpa) and Sam Register (Teen Titans Go!), HBO Max released an official trailer for Looney Tunes Cartoons that shines a light on just some of the familiar faces we'll be spending time with again.
