Seth MacFarlane talks about cast for Family Guy live action movie
Personally, I don’t think we’re going to see a Family Guy movie for a LONG time, but it’s fun to think about it. Seth MacFarlane apparently shares my opinion:
A small-screen start proved no obstacle for “The Simpsons Movie,” which has made over half a billion dollars worldwide since its July release. That’s good news for that other animated dysfunctional family, says “Family Guy” creator Seth MacFarlane.
“At some point, I hope [to make a “Family Guy” movie],” he insisted. “The trick is to find a way to do it and do the series at the same time. That’s almost impossible and I think that’s why it took ‘The Simpsons’ twenty years. Hopefully it’s sooner rather than later.”
But should Peter, Lois, Stewie and the rest of the Griffin family meet resistance on their way to the multiplex, no worries, joked MacFarlane…he’s already got a live-action cast picked out to appease the bean counters.
“I guess Juliette Lewis would be Meg, David Hyde Pierce would be Stewie,” he chuckled. “Ann Coulter would be Brian. Let’s see, Rosie O’Donnell would be Peter - she’d do a good job, she’s talented, a multi-faceted entertainer.”
“Who did I leave out?” MacFarlane laughed. “Oh, Chris! Phillip Seymour Hoffman! And of course Lois would be, let’s give it to Kathy Griffin for god’s sakes. She’s paid her dues!”
Take notice Fox execs, live-action or animated, MacFarlane already has a plot as well. “Something to do with Pauley Shore, that’s all I know,” he said.
Oh - and also? Family Guy is now on iTunes:
We’ve heard many times before that Fox was interested in getting on iTunes, and now it seems a deal has been worked out– Family Guy has appeared on iTunes. Now you can watch the Griffins (including Stewie, definitely my favorite) on your Apple TV, iPod, or iPhone.
