Seth MacFarlane Goes To War

Image Seth MacFarlane is best known as the creator of the comedy series Family Guy, American Dad and Orville. Earlier this year, he struck a multimillion-dollar deal with NBCUniversal and is now starting work on their first collaboration, which will allow McFarlane to move away from the comedy genre - Seth suddenly decided to switch to drama.

MacFarlane adapts two novels by Hermann Wook, Winds of War and War and Remembrance. They will form the basis of a miniseries produced by Universal Content Productions. The company is going to submit the project to various channels and streaming services for consideration. McFarlane will co-write and executive produce the war drama, with Seth Fisher ("The Alienist") assisting him in this.

The original novels tell the story of the commander of the US Navy, Victor Henry and his family through the prism of World War II.“I have been a devoted fan of the epic Hermann Wuck for decades. His description of human resilience in the face of global upheaval is more relevant than ever today ", - said McFarlane.

"Winds of War" has already been filmed: in 1983, the ABC channel released the series of the same name with Robert Mitchum in the title role. The drama has since been nominated for four Golden Globes and three Emmy awards, so McFarlane has a lot to strive for.
