The series will be led by Chris Yost and Eric Heisserer, who will executive produce alongside Seth MacFarlane, Erica Huggins, and Rachel Hargreaves-Heald of MacFarlane’s production company, Fuzzy Door. Dinniman will serve as a co-executive producer.
The books have developed a dedicated following for their blend of fantasy, science fiction, dark humor, and video game-inspired mechanics. How closely the show will follow the source material remains unclear.
