Grab yourself some slices of Mana Toast and prepare for the meth war between the goblins and llamas to begin, because Matt Dinniman‘s Dungeon Crawler Carl is finally getting a live-action adaptation! After years of false starts and stagnation, Dinniman’s mega-popular LitRPG (Literary Role-Playing Game) novel series is officially in development at Peacock, courtesy of Seth MacFarlane‘s Fuzzy Door.
Cowboy Bebop and Thor: Ragnarok writer Chris Yost will write and executive-produce the series, with Seth MacFarlane executive-producing through his Fuzzy Door Studio. If you’re concerned about Yost and MacFarlane keeping things real, have no fear, because Dinniman is also executive-producing alongside Fuzzy Door’s Erica Huggins.
Here’s the official logline for the forthcoming series:
“An alien invasion has wiped out most of humanity and any survivors are forced to fight for their lives on a sadistic intergalactic game show. Sounds bad, right? Now try doing it with bare feet and a stuck-up, self-centered, tiara-wearing talking cat as your partner. Welcome to Dungeon Crawler World: Earth, where the apocalypse will be televised … and Coast Guard vet Carl finds himself stuck with his ex-girlfriend’s award-winning show cat, Princess Donut the Queen Anne Chonk, as they try to survive the end of the world, fighting monsters, aliens, an insane A.I. and even other survivors … all for the sake of good TV. Survival is optional. Entertainment is not.”
Last month, Dinniman spoke with Variety about the adaptation when plans were still in flux, assuring fans that if and when the project moves to the next stage, the live-action adaptation would be legit. He knows fans are nervous about anyone taking a live-action approach to the material, but Dinniman firmly believes it’s the right way to go. “It’s kind of funny. A lot of the more hardcore nerdy fans — I mean, like I am — will say, we want it animated. And then I think actually the majority of people who aren’t into animation are going to say, we want a live action,” Dinniman said. “If you actually poll people out on the street, it’s going to be a pretty high number of live action. But that’s really high risk, high reward, because we’re not going to do it if it’s gonna look like absolute shit.”
