The upcoming "Family Guy" spinoff focused on Stewie Griffin is building out its voice cast.
Variety has confirmed that, in addition to Seth MacFarlane as Stewie, "Family Guy" mainstay Mike Henry will also lend his voice to the show, as will Kenan Thompson, Vanessa Bayer, Melissa O'Neil, Aaron Lee, and Jessica Lowe.
"Stewie" was originally announced in March with a two-season order at Fox, which also airs "Family Guy" as that show goes into its 25th season.
An official synopsis of "Stewie" reads, "After getting the boot from his old preschool, Stewie is forced to enroll in a new one that's not exactly top-of-the-line. It's attended by a handful of kids he doesn't know, an elderly class turtle with a half-cocked theory on just about everything, and a teacher who probably shouldn't be allowed anywhere near kids. Stewie's miserable, the other kids are miserable, even the turtle is miserable…until Stewie begins rolling out his trusty array of devices to take them anywhere in space and time, turning every boring day at school into an insane and unforgettable adventure."
Thompson voices Royal, described as "one of Stewie's new friends who's got a ‘Hell no' attitude about the hazards of Stewie's adventures." Bayer will play Morgan, Stewie's teacher, "who should probably spend more time watching the kids, and less time partying."
Henry voices BJ, said to be "Stewie's gossipy new classmate, and son of ‘Family Guy's' Bruce." Lowe voices Caroline, "a wannabe influencer, and Stewie's formidable classroom nemesis." O'Neil voices Wanda, "Stewie's intellectual soulmate and object of affection." Lee voices Skunk, "the hundred year-old class turtle who's got a half-cocked theory about literally everything."
MacFarlane will also voice Bean, said to be "Stewie's man-of-very-few-words classmate who was dropped on his head one too many times."
More to come…,
