Premiering in 1999 on Fox, the series has scooped up eight Emmy Awards, run an astonishing 21 seasons, and aired 404 episodes as of this writing.

The series boasts a large cast of well-known actors voicing the animated characters including Seth Green, Mila Kunis, Alex Borstein, and Patrick Warburton. In this list, we will run down some hilarious movies starring members of the Family Guy cast. From a foul-mouthed teddy bear to a swinging ‘60s spy to a cubicle-filled office nightmare, the films on this list will tickle your funny bone.

Ted

Ted (2012) Mark Wahlberg
Media Rights Capital

Seth MacFarlane wrote, produced, directed, and voiced the titular bear in 2012’s Ted. It was MacFarlane’s live-action feature directorial debut and a box office smash, which spawned a sequel in 2015. Ted tells the story of a teddy bear brought to life by the wish of a lonely boy named John. When the world finds out about the talking teddy bear, Ted becomes famous briefly before the novelty wears off and the public moves on. John and Ted grow up together as best friends but never actually grow up. The adult John’s relationship with his girlfriend Lori (played by Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis, respectively) starts to suffer because of his devotion to his friend and their childish lifestyle. Throughout the film, there is a ton of bawdy humor, ranging from weed jokes to a hilarious scene where John tries to guess the name of a woman Ted met at the supermarket.

Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery

Austin Powers
New Line Cinema

Peter Griffin’s painfully awkward son Chris is voiced by Seth Green in the long-running series. Green has been a go-to comedic actor for years in Hollywood, appearing in over 50 films. He appeared in 1997’s Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery as Dr. Evil’s son Scott. Beyond Mike Myers’ dual performances as super-spy Austin Powers and his nemesis Dr. Evil, Green plays a sullen, embittered son in the film and its two sequels.

In the film, Austin Powers and Dr. Evil are both awakened in the 1990s from being cryogenically frozen since the 1960s and the time asleep has done nothing to quell their feud. There are sight gags in almost every scene, along with punny names, and wall-to-wall references to swinging 1960s British youth culture and past spy movies including the James Bond series and 1967’s In Like Flint.

A Million Ways to Die in the West

A million ways to die in the west
Universal

Writer–actor-director Seth MacFarlane’s 2014 comedy A Million Ways to Die in the West is set in 1882 and stars MacFarlane as a cowardly sheepherder named Albert in the town of Old Stump, Arizona who is nursing a heartbreak. He meets and develops a relationship with Anna (Charlize Theron), the wife of deadly gunslinger Clinch Leatherwood (Liam Neeson).

Albert tries to build up the bravery to face Leatherwood who is headed to town while also constantly dodging the numerous ways people died in the American West, including disease, the weather, and rattlesnakes in the outhouse. As is MacFarlane’s brand, the film is laced with risqué humor from start to finish. MacFarlane also loves to squeeze in a musical number on Family Guy and he does so in the film with a lively country ditty all about mustaches. The movie features some Family Guy alum and guest stars in the ensemble cast, including Alex Borstein, Giovanni Ribisi, and Amanda Seyfried.

Bad Moms

STX Entertainment

Mila Kunis voices Meg Griffin on Family Guy, Peter’s daughter whom the entire family regularly ridicules. In 2016, she starred in Bad Moms alongside Kathryn Hahn and Kristen Bell. In the raucous comedy, the trio of moms in a Chicago suburb grow sick and tired of the standards placed on modern mothers, so they decide to buck the trends and have a little fun, much to the annoyance of Christina Applegate’s uptight PTA president. Once Kunis, Hahn, and Bell’s characters decide to let loose, the movie takes off. Who knew watching moms be bad could be so much fun? Jada Pinkett Smith, Annie Mumolo, and Jay Hernandez round out the cast. The film ended up being a financial success, warranting the sequel A Bad Moms Christmas, featuring Christine Baranski, Cheryl Hines, and Susan Sarandon a year later.

The Emperor’s New Groove

Kronk and Yzma
Walt Disney Pictures

In this The Emperor's New Groove about an emperor mistakenly transformed into a llama, Family Guy recurring cast member Patrick Warburton voices the character Kronk. He is the physically imposing yet good-natured sidekick to the film’s antagonist, Yzma, voiced by Eartha Kitt. He helps her carry out her evil plans while also doing things like cooking her a tray of spinach puffs. Throughout the constant slapstick humor and plots by Yzma to steal the throne from David Spade’s egotistical Emperor Kuzco, Kronk remains a sweet simpleton who provides a funny warmth that offsets Yzma’s villainy. Warburton provides the voice for Joe Swanson, the Griffin family’s wheelchair-bound neighbor. The actor has also lent his rich baritone voice talents to films such as Open Season, Bee Movie, and Mr. Peabody and Sherman.

Office Space

Office Space
20th Century Fox

The 1999 cult classic film Office Space, about a group of colleagues at a software company called Initech who hate their jobs, features Ron Livingston, Jennifer Aniston, and Gary Cole, the voice of Principal Shepherd (among other characters) on Family Guy. One of Cole’s most iconic roles is that of Bill Lumbergh, a passive-aggressive micromanager at Initech. The film pokes fun at office culture, where everyday pleasantries are only used to soften the blow of being assigned yet another redundant, inane task. Lumbergh’s monotone delivery of the line “What’s happening?” is a chilling sound to anyone who has had a boss fixated on assigning them to do useless paperwork. Initially a box office dud, it found a second life on home video and has since become beloved by workers everywhere, corporate or otherwise, for almost 25 years.

Monsters, Inc.

Monsters, Inc. by Pete Docter
Disney/Pixar

In the city of Monstropolis, powered by the energy generated by children’s screams, two of the top scariest monsters in town, James “Sulley” Sullivan (voiced by John Goodman) and Mike Wazowski (voiced by Billy Crystal) have to contend with a human little girl who has come through to their side. Once word gets out that a human child is in the world of monsters, madness and hilarity ensue. Monsters, Inc. was one of the highest-grossing films of 2001 and was nominated for four Academy Awards, winning the Oscar for Best Original Song. It stars a voice cast including Steve Buscemi, James Coburn, Pixar mainstay John Ratzenberger, and Jennifer Tilly as Mike’s snake-haired girlfriend Celia Mae. Tilly’s unmistakable voice is also that of Joe Swanson’s gentle, loving wife Bonnie on Family Guy. A prequel titled Monsters University was released in 2013.

Can’t Hardly Wait

Sony Pictures Releasing

An ensemble comedy about a high school graduation party and the various love stories therein, Can’t Hardly Wait stars Jennifer Love Hewitt, Ethan Embry, Lauren Ambrose, and Seth Green. Hewitt plays the object of Embry’s affection, and he considers this night his final chance to tell her how he feels. Meanwhile, Ambrose and Green’s characters become reacquainted during an unfortunate turn of events where they get locked in a bathroom together as the party rages on downstairs. Those are only two of the multiple stories running at once in this 1998 film. The movie swings between the romantic, the comedic, and even a revenge plot gone awry. It also features a great soundtrack that runs the gamut from Busta Rhymes to Guns N’ Roses.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall

Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Universal Pictures

In Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Jason Segel’s Peter Bretter gets dumped by Kristen Bell’s Sarah Marshall at the start of the movie and the audience watches Peter go through all of his emotions in getting over it. Desperate to forget her or anything that reminds him of her, Peter takes off on a vacation to a gorgeous Hawaiian resort. Unfortunately, it happens to be the same resort Sarah and her new rock star boyfriend Aldous Snow (Russell Brand) happen to be staying in at the same time. While at the resort, Peter meets and develops feelings for the beautiful hotel concierge Rachel (Mila Kunis). Numerous hysterical and awkward run-ins ensue around the hotel, including a cringeworthy, wine-soaked dinner scene where the central four characters air out some of their honest feelings about relationships.

Friends with Benefits

Friends with Benefits
Sony Pictures Releasing

Mila Kunis starred in Friends with Benefits, opposite Justin Timberlake. In the film, she plays Jamie, a corporate headhunter who scouts Timberlake’s Dylan in LA for a creative director job at GQ Magazine’s offices in New York City. Not knowing anyone in New York, Dylan is taken under Jamie’s wing as she shows him around the city. The two become fast friends who eventually decide to add sex into their friendship and swear to keep it casual and light. That, as it turns out, is not as simple as it seems. While the rom-com formula is nothing new, Kunis and Timberlake have great comic and romantic chemistry. The movie is raunchy and sweet, with funny supporting performances by Woody Harrelson and Patricia Clarkson.
