Will Forte is, apparently, The Last Man on Earth, which is made even better by the fact that it’s a series coming up on Fox from The Lego Movie’s Chris Miller and Phil Lord. Imagine the movie I Am Legend with no monsters and doing as he pleases and you’ll get some idea of how great this could be.
Watch this trailer directed by Key & Peele’s Peter Atencio.
Will Forte’s “Last Man on Earth” Ordered to Series at Fox
Fox is moving forward with it’s abandonment of the pilot season model and giving the series greenlight to Will Forte’s series Last Man on Earth, a possibly post apocalyptic comedy.
Chris Miller and Phil Lord (the guys you should now know from The Lego Movie) are producing and even directing the first episode, so, basically, we’re excited for this happen soon.
Post Apocalyptic Comedy to Come from Will Forte, Phil Lord, and Chris Miller
With movies like Idiocracy to This Is The End, the sub genre of post apocalyptic comedy is becoming more and more solid everyday.
This announcement is a pretty good example as well of this trend.
