A newFamily GuyAI video almost nails an imagined live-action version of the cast.Created by comedian Seth MacFarlane,Family Guyis a long-running adult animated series that has been on air since 1999. Following the lovable but dysfunctional Griffin family, its characters have become television staples over the past two-and-a-half decades. The show’s leading voice cast includes MacFarlane, Alex Borstein, Mila Kunis, Seth Green, and Patrick Warburton.Family Guyreturns for season 23 in just under two weeks, with the first episode arriving on Sunday, February 16.
Now, a newFamily Guyparody trailer made with AI by@rino_russo_imagines the cast in live-action. Check it out below:
Set to theFamily Guymain theme, the video starts by showing a pudgy Peter Griffin, smiling at the camera. Other characters featured in the AI-assisted live-action version include Lois, Joe Swanson, Cleveland, Quagmire, Ernie the Giant Chicken, Chris, Mort Goldman, Meg, and Stewie, who is portrayed as a real-looking infant child with a normal head shape in the video.Most of the characters portrayed are the animated leads and side characters, but they also included an uncanny and inaccurate version of Mayor Adam West, who is based on the real-life Adam West.
What This Means For The Family Guy Characters
Family Guy Live-Action Cast Members Have Been Floated Before
The animated version of Adam West is a particularly amusing addition to thisFamily Guyvideo. While Mayor Adam West is a character who first appeared in season 2, he is voiced by the real-life West. As such, the version of him inthe AI imagining of live-actionFamily Guylooks vaguely like the show’s character, but nothing like the real-life West. He is the only real person the video tried to replicate, and the AI fumbled it.
Family Guy Season 23: Release Date, Cast, Story, Trailer & Everything We Know
Fox’s raunchy mainstay Family Guy shows no signs of stopping anytime soon, and the Seth MacFarlane animated series is returning for season 23.
This is far from the first time that aFamily Guylive-actionmovie or TV show has been imagined. A 2024 concept trailer suggested a version of the show using real actors such as Kevin James in the role of Peter and Elizabeth Banks as Lois. Other suggested actors for a live-action version of the series have included Abigail Breslin, Elisabeth Moss, Craig Robinson, and Bill Hader. Despite these suggestions,there has never been a live-action version ofFamily Guy, and there are no real plans to make one.
Our Take On The Family Guy Live-Action Video
Family Guy Is Best As An Animated Show
This latestFamily Guylive-action interpretation is a good reminder thatanimation is the best medium for the Griffin family and their friends and neighbors. The AI Stewie, for example, looks nothing like he does in the show, as a real person is unable to capture the character’s football-shaped head. It is design elements like this that make animation the most artistic representation of theFamily Guycharacters, making a live-action version unnecessary.
