Fox has ordered live-action/animated hybrid comedy “Son of Zorn” from executive producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller (“The Last Man on Earth.”)

The oddball sitcom from the “Lego Movie” duo will star “Last Man” recurring guest Jason Sudeikis via voiceover. Johnny Pemberton, Cheryl Hines and Tim Meadows co-star on the live-action side.

Upon arriving home on Earth for the first time in 10 years, “Zorn” (Sudeikis), a fully animated, legendary warrior, finds that reconnecting with his live-action son Alan (Pemberton) and ex-wife Edie (Hines), while suffering through a mundane office job and the banality of suburban life, is harder than waging actual war in his distant, mystical original homeland of Zephyria.
