Earlier this year, Ubisoft accidentally leaked the first word that a Far Cry TV series was in development with It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia star Rob Mac and Alien: Earth creator Noah Hawley. Now, it’s official. Far Cry is going forward as television show on FX and Hulu.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Far Cry will be an anthology similar to Fargo, the series that Hawley brought to FX over a decade ago. FX notes that each season of Far Cry will have a new setting and a new cast of characters. Mac–who was formerly known as Rob McElhenney–will executive produce and star in the first season of the series.
Ubisoft’s official account for Far Cry quickly shared the news as well.
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

“What I love about the Far Cry game franchise is it’s an anthology,” said Hawley in a statement. “Each game is a variation of a theme, the same way each season of Fargo is a variation on a theme. 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.”
“Getting to work alongside Noah Hawley is a dream realized,” added Mac. “Ubisoft has been remarkably generous, entrusting us with one of the most iconic video-game worlds ever created. And through it all, my FX family continues to lift me up with their constant belief and support.”
FX and Hulu haven’t announced a premiere window for Far Cry, but Hawley recently signed a new overall deal with FX and Disney Entertainment Television that includes Alien: Earth Season 2.
In September, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot said that the future of the Far Cry games will place an emphasis on multiplayer. A new Far Cry title has yet to be officially unveiled by Ubisoft.
