The renowned darkly comedic Wilson by Daniel Clowes is being brought to life, or rather, to life within a film.

This first red band trailer is very enticing and laugh-out-loud funny with Woody Harrelson as the titular Wilson. The supporting cast of Laura Dern, Judy Greer, Cheryl Hines and Isabella Amara look pretty great as part of Wilson’s dysfunctionally functioning world.

This film adaptation of Wilson was thankfully written by Clowes and directed by Craig Johnson. Look for it in theaters on March 24th, 2017.

Tonight, the live-action-animation hybrid Son of Zorn will follow a NFL doubleheader on Fox around 8PM and give you a taste of what the clashing of mythical and magical Zephyrian universe and the suburbs of Orange County is like.

Before that, you should really watch the creators and cast of Son of Zorn in a panel discussion of the series for this season. It not only gives a better sense of how the show works, but the panel really got fun, silly, and loose.

Again, the special preview of Son of Zorn is scheduled for 8PM on Fox, with exception to overtime during the NFL doubleheader.

Fox Unveils Trailers for “Son of Zorn”, “Making History”, and “The Mick”

It looks like Phil Lord and Chris Miller are really rubbing off on Fox in the best way possible.

Two of the new comedies that were announced at Fox’s Upfronts presentation have Lord and Miller’s hands involved and those just happen to be two very enticing high concept comedies.

One, Son of Zorn, puts an animated He-Man type, voiced by Jason Sudeikis, into the 9-5 grind in the real world with Johnny Pemberton as a son, Cheryl Hines as an ex-wife, Tim Meadows as the ex-wife’s fiance, and Artemis Pebdani as his boss. Here’s the trailer.

The other involves Adam Pally as someone who has a time machine and has abused it. Thus, he enlists an accomplished history professor played by Yassir Lester to fix something he might have screwed up in the American Revolution. Here’s the trailer for Making History.

Both make Fox’s live action comedy line-up have a certain high concept sheen already laid out by Last Man on Earth and Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

To round out the new series, Fox has a show that is basically a Sweet Dee from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia standalone series. See for yourself in the trailer for The Mick starring Sweet Dee herself, Kaitlin Olson.

All in all, Fox has a lot of promise with this trio.

Fox Orders Live Action Animated Hybrid “Son of Zorn” from Phil Lord, Chris Miller, Reed Agnew, and Eli Jorne to Series

Given Fox’s track record with animated series and Lord and Miller along with Wilfred’s Reed Agnew and Eli Jorne, Son of Zorn has a whole lot going for it.

Jason Sudeikis will be the voice of Zorn in a comedy that follows a legendary warrior reconnecting with his family played by Cheryl Hines and Johnny Pemberton, but also having to settle down to the normal 9 to 5 like so many of the rest of us.

Hopefully, this will deliver on how promising it sounds.

The live action/animated hybrid series from Chris Miller and Phil Lord has quite the cast.

It was already exciting hearing about Miller and Lord developing their next high concept comedy at Fox involving an animated “fantasy warrior” dad dealing with home life, especially his son played by Pemberton.

Now, it’s even more exciting to hear that Jason Sudeikis, Cheryl Hines, Tim Meadows, and Artemis Pedbani have all attached themselves to the project, Son of Zorn.

At this point, we can only hope this gets picked up to series just so we can see what Miller and Lord have cooked up that we’re guessing is somewhere between Clone High and Last Man on Earth.
