Hilarious New Trailer For Seth MacFarlane's STAR TREK Parody Series THE ORVILLE
Fox has released a new trailer for their upcoming new sci-fi comedy series The Orville. The series comes from Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane and it's basically a hilarious looking Star Trek parody reminiscent of Galaxy Quest. This is the trailer that was actually screened at Comic-Con this past weekend. The show looks like it's going to be a blast and I'm looking forward to checking it out.
THE ORVILLE is a live-action, one-hour space adventure series set 400 years in the future that follows The Orville, a mid-level exploratory spaceship. Its crew, both human and alien, face the wonders and dangers of outer space, while also dealing with the familiar, often humorous problems of everyday life.
The ensemble series stars MacFarlane as the ship’s Commanding Officer and Adrianne Palicki as his ex-wife, who’s assigned as his First Officer. Additional cast members include Penny Johnson Jerald, Scott Grimes, Peter Macon, Halston Sage, J Lee, Mark Jackson and Chad L. Coleman.
The pilot episode was written by MacFarlane and directed by Iron Man director Jon Favreau, who is also an executive producer.
The Orville will premiere Sunday, September 10th on Fox.
