FX has picked up a TV series adaptation of the “Far Cry” video game franchise from two of its biggest producers.
“Alien: Earth” and “Fargo” creator Noah Hawley will team with “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” and “Welcome to Wrexham” star/producer Rob Mac (aka. Rob McElhenney) for the show.
Like the games, the show will be an anthology with each season telling a different story in a different part of the world with a new cast of characters each time. Rob Mac will also star in the first season.
Story specifics of that first season are under wraps. FX Entertainment president Nick Grad has said in a statement:
“FX has had magnificent partnerships with Rob Mac and Noah Hawley for a combined six series and 32 seasons of television, and we couldn’t be more excited that they are teaming up for Far Cry, I have no doubt that they will tell this story in a way that is original, gripping and wildly entertaining. We also want to thank our partners at Ubisoft for entrusting us with this beloved property.”
Hawley says the aim is to “create a big action show that can change from year to year, while always exploring the nature of humanity through this complex and chaotic lens.” He says he and Mac have a “shared irreverent, ambitious sensibility” they will use for this.
At release, “Far Cry” will stream on Hulu in the U.S. and Disney+ in other parts of the world.
So uh… remember when we said FARCRY stories always escalate? Yeah. FX took that personally.
A brand-new FARCRY anthology series is coming to Hulu with a whole new setting, new cast, and the exact level of chaos your therapist told you to avoid.
Good luck out there. pic.twitter.com/1QINzLTvca
