Family Guy Spinoff Stewie Cast Includes Seth MacFarlane, Seth MacFarlane, and Kenan Thompson
Family Guy spin-off Stewie has announced its voice cast ahead of its planned 2027–28 television-season debut. The series will follow Stewie Griffin’s adventures after he is forced into a new, poorly regarded kindergarten, using his inventions to turn ordinary school days into time- and space-travelling escapades.
Seth MacFarlane will voice both Stewie and classmate Bean, while Kenan Thompson plays Royal, a sceptical fellow pupil. Mike Henry will voice BJ, Melissa O’Neil will play Stewie’s crush Wanda, and Aaron Lee will voice Skunk, the class’s 100-year-old turtle; Brian is expected to appear recurrently. The show already has a two-season order, with MacFarlane as co-creator and executive producer and long-serving Family Guy writer Kirker Butler as showrunner.

Explained simply
Family Guy is spinning off with a new series focused on Stewie Griffin, one of the show's main characters. The spin-off follows Stewie as he attends kindergarten and uses his inventions to turn ordinary school days into adventures through time and space.
Seth MacFarlane, who created Family Guy, is co-creating the spin-off and also voicing its titular character. Kirker Butler, a veteran writer and producer on the original series, has been appointed showrunner to lead the show's development.
The spin-off represents an expansion of the Family Guy universe, which has been a cornerstone of animated television for over two decades. The network has already commissioned two full seasons, indicating strong confidence in the project before it has aired.
