Move Over Looney Tunes, LeBron James Is Teaming Up With Stewie Griffin For Next Shoe

Posted on by

If you’re a LeBron James die-hard looking for another cartoon fix after that terrible Space Jam: A New Legacy film, well Nike is going to have you covered sometime later this year. Introducing the Nike LeBron 18 Low “Stewie Griffin” edition. As you can see, FOX’s Family Guy is getting the sneaker treatment from Nike complete with a look that straight up looks like Stewie’s overalls wrapped around a shoe.

The voice of Stewie, Seth MacFarlane, was recently nominated for the voice of the Griffin toddler that has become synonymous with pop culture. The baby’s football-shaped head and British accent has helped keep Family Guy on FOX for decades now with the show routinely being the highest-rated in the 18-34 demographic every Sunday Night. A Comic-Con panel is coming next week where voices and producers are slated to talk about the upcoming season.

Synopsis:

Entering its 18th season, FAMILY GUY continues to entertain its die-hard fan base with razor-sharp humor, spot-on parodies, spectacular animation and orchestra-backed original music. Since its debut in 1999, the series has reached cult status among fans, and its breakout star, a talking baby, has become one of the greatest TV characters of all time. FAMILY GUY has racked up numerous awards, including an Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Comedy Series, only the second animated series in television history to be honored with such a distinction. Most recently, series creator and lead voice actor Seth MacFarlane (voices of “Peter Griffin,” “Stewie Griffin,” “Brian Griffin” and “Glenn Quagmire”) won the 2019 Emmy Award for Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance. Cast member Alex Borstein (voice of “Lois Griffin”) won the 2018 Emmy Award in the category. MacFarlane also was nominated that year. He won the 2017 and 2016 Emmy Award in the category, and was nominated from 2013 to 2015.

Set to premiere with its milestone 350th episode, when the world will witness Stewie’s first word, FAMILY GUY continues to provide a humorous take on current events, with big name guest voices, including Chris Parnell, Alfred Molina, Cary Elwes, Lisa Loeb, Lou Diamond Phillips and Patrick Stump, as well as Sam Elliott who takes over for the late Adam West as the mayor of Quahog.

FAMILY GUY is a 20th Television production. Seth MacFarlane is creator and executive producer. Rich Appel and Alec Sulkin serve as executive producers and showrunners, while Steve Callaghan, Tom Devanney, Danny Smith, Kara Vallow, Mark Hentemann and Patrick Weigan are executive producers.
