Video game adaptations are becoming more and more popular, as are the video games that inspired them. Recent years have given us more faithful adaptations than we ever thought possible, such as The Last of Us, which is based on the series of award-winning games from Naughty Dog. Even Prime Video has taken its turn at adapting video games with Fallout, which doesn’t tell a one-for-one story inspired by one of the games, but instead an original story that fits seamlessly in with existing canon. One of the more interesting adaptations in the works is a new Far Cry TV series, which is being adapted by Noah Hawley. Plot details about the show are being kept under wraps at this time, but it’s been announced in recent weeks that Rob Mac and Lizzy Caplan have joined the cast of the show.
This afternoon, FX announced another exciting addition to the Far Cry cast in the form of Steve Buscemi, the multi-time Emmy-nominated star best known for his work on shows like The Sopranos and Boardwalk Empire. Details about Buscemi’s role are being kept under wraps right now, as are the roles of his co-stars. Far Cry is being developed similar to Fallout, in that it will be a standalone story that fits into the Far Cry games, not a one-for-one adaptation of one of the best-selling award-winning games that has already been released. While still billed as a limited series, FX has confirmed plans for multiple seasons, with each new season featuring a new setting and following a new cast of characters. Assuming Season 1 performs well on Hulu, Season 2 will likely be greenlit and work will begin immediately.
Collider Exclusive · Sci-Fi Survival Quiz Which Sci-Fi World Would You Survive? The Matrix · Mad Max · Blade Runner · Dune · Star Wars
Five universes. Five completely different ways the future went wrong — or sideways, or up in flames. Only one of them is the world your instincts were built for. Eight questions will figure out which dystopia, galaxy, or desert wasteland you’d actually make it out of alive.
💊The Matrix
🔥Mad Max
🌧️Blade Runner
🏜️Dune
🚀Star Wars
01
You sense something is deeply wrong with the world around you. What do you do? The first instinct is often the truest one.
02
In a world of scarcity, what resource do you guard most fiercely? What we protect reveals what we believe survival actually requires.
03
What kind of threat keeps you up at night? Fear is useful data — if you’re honest about what you’re actually afraid of.
04
How do you deal with authority you don’t trust? Every dystopia has a power structure. Your approach to it determines everything.
05
Which environment could you actually endure long-term? Survival isn’t just tactical — it’s physical, psychological, and very much about where you are.
06
Who do you want in your corner when things fall apart? The company you keep is the clearest signal of who you actually are.
07
Where do you draw the line — if you draw one at all? Every survivor eventually faces a moment that tests what they’re actually made of.
08
What would actually make survival worth it? Staying alive is one thing. Having a reason to is another.
Your Fate Has Been Calculated You’d Survive In…
Your answers point to the world your instincts were built for. This is the universe your temperament, your survival instincts, and your particular brand of stubbornness were made for.
The Resistance, Zion
The Matrix
You took the red pill a long time ago — probably before anyone offered it to you. You’re a systems thinker who can’t help but notice the seams in things.
You’re drawn to understanding how the system works before figuring out how to break it.
You’d find the Resistance, or it would find you — your instinct for spotting constructed realities is the machines’ worst nightmare.
You function best when you have access to information and the freedom to act on it.
The Matrix built an airtight prison. You’d be the one probing the walls for the door.
The Wasteland
Mad Max
The wasteland doesn’t reward the clever or the well-connected — it rewards those who are hard to kill and harder to break. That’s you.
You don’t need comfort, community, or a cause larger than the next horizon.
You need a vehicle, a clear threat, and enough fuel to outrun it — and you’re good at all three.
You are unsentimental enough to survive that world, and decent enough — just barely — to be something more than another raider.
In the wasteland, that distinction is everything.
Los Angeles, 2049
Blade Runner
You’d survive here because you know how to exist in moral grey areas without losing yourself completely.
You read people accurately, keep your circle small, and ask the questions others prefer not to answer.
In a city where humanity is a legal designation rather than a feeling, you hold onto something that keeps you functional.
You’re not a hero. But you’re not lost, either.
In Blade Runner’s world, that distinction is everything.
Arrakis
Dune
Arrakis is the most hostile environment in the known universe — and you are precisely the kind of person it rewards.
Patience, discipline, and political awareness are your core strengths — and on Arrakis, they’re survival tools.
You understand that the long game matters more than any single victory.
Others come to Dune and are consumed by it. You’d learn its logic and earn its respect.
In time, you wouldn’t just survive Arrakis — you’d begin to reshape it.
A Galaxy Far, Far Away
Star Wars
The galaxy far, far away is vast, loud, and in a constant state of violent political upheaval — and you wouldn’t have it any other way.
You find meaning in being part of something larger than yourself — a cause, a crew, a rebellion.
You’d gravitate toward the Rebellion, or the fringes, or whatever pocket of the galaxy still believes the Empire’s grip can be broken.
You fight — not because you have to, but because standing aside isn’t something you’re capable of.
In Star Wars, that willingness is what makes all the difference.
When Does Hulu’s ‘Far Cry’ Series Come Out?
FX has yet to set an official release date for when Far Cry will begin streaming on Hulu. Noah Hawley is hard at work right now filming the second season of Alien: Earth, which is expected to stream sometime in 2027. Should Hawley begin work on Far Cry not long after wrapping on Alien: Earth Season 2, it’s possible that the new video game adaptation could be shot before the end of this year. This will still leave it a tight window to premiere in 2027, though it’s possible for it to land a release window sometime in Q3 or Q4.
Stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Hulu’s Far Cry series.
