At a special event this week to celebrate the 100th episode of American Dad, Seth MacFarlane said he's moving ahead with plans for a Family Guy movie.
"We want to do it," MacFarlane told Wired.com. It wasn't a grand, official announcement, but it was clear it's more than a passing whim.
"Fox wants it. We know what we want to do with it. It's just a question of finding the time," he said. "That's why The Simpsons took so many years to do theirs. It wasn't because they didn't know what they wanted to do with it. They just couldn't fit it into the schedule.
"There's so much to do for a weekly animated series — twice as much as you have to do for a live-action show. So, we're finding time where we can. We're in the early stages right now."
MacFarlane gathered with the press and the cast and crew of his American Dad series for a special table reading commemorating the show's 100th episode on Fox. After cutting a special cake and thanking show runners Mike Barker and Matt Weitzman, MacFarlane hustled back to work on the next episode of Family Guy.
