"The number of video game franchises not being adapted for TV must surely now be nearing the single-figure mark, and we've known for a little while that a Far Cry show is on the way too. Ubisoft has now confirmed previous that Alien: Earth's Noah Hawley and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia creator Rob Mac will helm an anthology show based on its long-running FPS series. FX is making it and it will stream on Hulu in the US."
""What I love about the Far Cry game franchise is it's an anthology. Each game is a variation of a theme, the same way each season of Fargo is a variation on a theme," Hawley in a press release. "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 is a dream come true. I'm excited to partner with Rob and bring our shared irreverent, ambitious sensibility to the screen.""
Ubisoft confirmed an anthology Far Cry television series to be produced by FX and streamed on Hulu in the US. Noah Hawley and Rob Mac will helm the series under a multi-year deal that includes Hawley's projects for Disney networks. Each season will present new characters and settings, mirroring the standalone structure of the Far Cry games. The adaptation approach echoes anthology shows like Fargo, aiming to combine big action with exploration of humanity's nature. A 2013 Blood Dragon expansion inspired Netflix's Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, but that series lacked obvious Far Cry elements.
