The number of video game franchises No The number of movies adapted for TV is really approaching the numbers, and we’ve known for a while that a Far Cry series is also in the works. Ubisoft has already published previous leaks about it Extraterrestrial: EarthIt’s Noah Hawley and It’s always sunny in Philadelphia Creator Rob Mac will direct an anthology show based on his long-running FPS series. FX does and it streams on Hulu in the US.
Each Far Cry game is a standalone experience with no clear narrative connections between them (though a quick look at Google will tell you that hasn’t stopped fans of the series from searching for them). Similarly, the TV series “Far Cry” is expected to feature new characters and a new setting every season.
“What I like about the Far Cry series of games is that it’s an anthology. Each game is a variation on a theme, the same every season.” Fargo is a variation on a theme,” Hawley said in a press release. “To create a big action spectacle that can change from year to year while exploring the nature of humanity through this complex and chaotic lens is a dream come true. “I’m excited to work with Rob and bring our shared, irreverent and ambitious sensibility to the screen.”
Technically, this isn’t the first time Far Cry has been on television. The Blood Dragon 2013 expansion for Cry 3 inspired the 2023 Netflix animated series for adults, Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix. While this series had plenty of fun, chaotic action scenes and deep Ubisoft gameplay that ensures you’ll never see Rayman the same again, there wasn’t much that stood out. Far away about this.
earlier this month The Hollywood Journalist reported that Noah Hawley has signed a multi-year deal with Disney that will allow him to produce shows for several of the company’s networks, including Hulu. In addition to adapting Far Cry, the Fargo The creator will direct the second season Extraterrestrial: Earthwhich would begin production in London in 2026.
As for Ubisoft, it seems like an ongoing strategy for the French publisher is to increase the visibility of its various franchises – especially those that haven’t released a new game in years – through television. Over the summer, Netflix finally greenlit an Assassin’s Creed series, five years after signing a deal with Ubisoft, while the long-awaited Splinter Cell animated series began streaming in October and was well received by critics.
