Is a live-action Family Guy movie coming to Netflix?

Is it true that a new live-action movie adaptation of Family Guy, one of the world’s most popular cartoons, is headed to Netflix, or is this just a rumor someone concocted?

In 1999, Seth McFarlane’s Family Guy premiered on American screens, introducing the dysfunctional, rude, beloved Griffin family to the world for the first time.

Nearly 25 years later, we’re more than 400 episodes deep and just past Season 2, with the show still attracting millions of viewers every week and countless more binging it start-to-finish on Disney Plus and other streaming platforms.

However, despite earlier plans for a feature film, nothing came to fruition – until now, apparently, as people online believe there’s a live-action Family Guy movie in the works at Netflix. Is it true?

Is a Family Guy live-action movie coming to Netflix?

No, a live-action Family Guy movie isn’t coming to Netflix, nor is any sort of project in development.

Forget about violence and movies, it seems today that all you see is artificial intelligence duping people on screens, and this is the latest example of users being fooled by an AI-generated fake poster.

Shared by JBuck Studios on Facebook – the realm of most AI-rooted fugazis – the poster shows the starry cast of the supposed live-action movie, including Kevin James as Peter, Laura Linney as Lois, Gaten Matarazzo as Chris, Ariel Winter as Meg, an everyday dog and baby as Brian and Stewie, Bill Hader as Quagmire, Patrick Warburton (with an exaggerated chin) as Joe, and Craig Robinson as Cleveland.

Warburton would be the only cast member from the show to reprise his role – if the movie was real, which it isn’t. Nevertheless, after thousands of comments and shares, plenty of folks have been tricked. “I will watch this one lol,” one wrote, while another commented: “Imma sue Netflix for all the emotional stress they’re putting us under lol.”

“I’m invested! Okay! I love it already!” a third wrote. “Would totally watch this!! May even get Netflix back for it,” a fourth commented. “Supposedly this is really happening… just not with these actors,” another suggested, wrongly.

File this under made-up projects and nonsense, just like Tom Hanks’ Martin Luther King movie and Will Smith’s supposed Adolf Hitler biopic.
