Fat Actor
Episode 14 of Family Guy season 22 (S22E14), the 423rd Family Guy episode overall. Written by Mark Hentemann and directed by Joseph Lee. First broadcast on 10 April 2024.
Story
A film about Chris Christie is to be shot in Quahog, and Peter objects that the lead has gone to Brad Pitt, voiced by Damien Fahey, rather than a heavy actor. He is hired as a consultant on living at that weight and coaches Pitt into it. Pitt gains the weight, injures his back and drops out, so Peter takes the part. The premiere is received coolly, and Peter concedes that trained actors bring more to a role than he can. Brian holds up the casting as a win for inclusion. Stewie has caught the acting bug himself, appearing in a staging of A Streetcar Named Desire.
