Number of video game franchises No Being adapted for TV should definitely be closer to the single-figure mark now, and we’ve known for a while that a Far Cry show was also on the way. Ubisoft has now confirmed this alien: earthNoah Hawley and It’s always sunny in Philadelphia Creator Rob Mack will direct an anthology show based on the long-running FPS series. FX is producing it and it will stream on Hulu in the US.
Each Far Cry game is a standalone experience with no obvious narrative link between them (even if a quick Google tells you that hasn’t stopped devotees of the series from finding them anyway). Similarly, the plan for the Far Cry TV show is that each season will feature new characters and a new setting.
“What I love about the Far Cry game franchise is that it’s an anthology. Each game is a variation of a theme, in the same way that each season fargo is a variation on a theme,” Hawley said in a press release. “Creating a big action show that can change from year to year, while always exploring the nature of humanity through this complex and chaotic lens is a dream come true. I’m excited to partner with Rob and bring our shared irreverent, ambitious sensibility to the screen.”
This technically isn’t the first time Far Cry has gotten the TV treatment. “Blood Dragon” expansion for 2013 far cry 3 Was the inspiration for Netflix’s 2023 adult animated series, Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon RemixHowever, while it included plenty of enjoyably chaotic action sequences and deep cut Ubisoft cameos that ensure you’ll never look at Rayman the same way again, there was clearly nothing like totally different About this.
earlier this month, hollywood reporter Noah Hawley has signed a multi-year deal with Disney, under which he will produce shows for the corporation’s multiple networks, including Hulu. Far Cry conversion as well fargo producers will lead the season Which will reportedly go into production in London in 2026.
As far as Ubisoft is concerned, raising the profile of its various franchises through TV – especially those that haven’t had a new game in years – appears to be an ongoing strategy for the French publisher. Over the summer, Netflix finally debuted an Assassin’s Creed show with Ubisoft after five years, while the long-awaited animated show debuted in October and was well received by critics.
The most recent Far Cry game was in 2021 In which Giancarlo Esposito played the role of dictator Aston Castillo.
