Ubisoft's open-world juggernaut Far Cry is being turned into an anthology show – with some serious creative muscle involved both on and off-camera.

As revealed on social media, "A brand-new FARCRY anthology series is coming to Hulu with a whole new setting, new cast, and the exact level of chaos your therapist told you to avoid."

“Ubisoft has been remarkably generous, entrusting us with one of the most iconic video-game worlds ever created," Mac said in a statement (H/T Variety).

Little else is known about the series, but Far Cry being an anthology series – think Fargo, True Detective, or American Horror Story – certainly allows for the series' tendency to sweep the globe in search of new, exotic, and explosive locations to come to fruition on our screens.
