An untitled Family Guy film is an upcoming American animated comedy film based on the popular long-running Fox animated television series Family Guy (1999–present). Plans for a Family Guy movie were announced in 2008, though Seth MacFarlane put the project on hold due his work on Ted and its sequel until Fox officially confirmed a film to be in development in mid-2018.

Production[edit]
In a July 22, 2007 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane announced that he may start working on a feature film, but stated that "nothing's official".[1] In TV Week on July 18, 2008, MacFarlane confirmed plans to produce a theatrically released Family Guy feature film sometime "within the next year".[2] He came up with an idea for the story, "something that you could not do on the show, which [to him] is the only reason to do a movie". He later went on to say he imagines the film to be "an old-style musical with dialogue" similar to the 1965 classic The Sound of Music, saying that he would "really be trying to capture, musically, that feel."[3] On October 13, 2011, Seth MacFarlane confirmed that a deal for a Family Guy film had been made, and that it would be written by himself and series co-producer Ricky Blitt.[4]
On November 30, 2012, following the box office success of his directorial debut Ted, MacFarlane confirmed plans to produce a Family Guy film, confirming that he has a story for it, expressing his belief that he had a hard time conceiving a proper story for a theatrical film while working concurrently in the series by comparing it with the case of The Simpsons, which aired nineteen seasons before the release of The Simpsons Movie in 2007.[5] However, a Family Guy movie was put on hold while MacFarlane worked on Ted 2.[6] On August 10, 2018, Fox announced that a live-action/animated film based on Family Guy is in development.[7] In July 2019, MacFarlane confirmed that there will be indeed a Family Guy movie.[8]
