FX begins filming live-action Far Cry series

Production has officially begun on the live-action Far Cry television series for FX. The project is co-produced by Noah Hawley and Rob McElhenney, with Hawley serving as showrunner.

The series features a cast including Steve Buscemi and Lizzy Caplan. Rather than adapting a specific game like Far Cry 3 or 5, the show is designed as an anthology series. This format aims to capture the essence of the Ubisoft franchise through independent seasons, each featuring a new cast, new locations, and new storylines.

While specific plot details remain confidential, the production intends to maintain the survivalist atmosphere and chaotic tone characteristic of the video game series.
