At Comic-Con International: San Diego, Fox released a new trailer for The Orville, Seth MacFarlane and Jon Favreau's comedic spin on the Star Trek television formula. Take a look above.

While The Orville may be something of a Star Trek parody in the same style as Galaxy Quest, it has some Star Trek alums on its staff, including Brannon Braga, who promises the show will feature old school Star Trek storytelling.

For his own part, MacFarlane has said the series will be more like Star Trek than it is like Futurama, implying that there's more than just laughs to be had.

From Emmy Award-winning executive producer and creator Seth MacFarlane (FAMILY GUY, "Ted," "Cosmos: A SpaceTime Odyssey"), THE ORVILLE is a live-action, one-hour space adventure series set 400 years in the future that follows The Orville, a mid-level exploratory spaceship. Its crew, both human and alien, face the wonders and dangers of outer space, while also dealing with the familiar, often humorous problems of everyday life. The ensemble series stars MacFarlane as the ship's Commanding Officer and Adrianne Palicki ("Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.," "Friday Night Lights") as his ex-wife, who's assigned as his First Officer. Additional cast members include Penny Johnson Jerald ("24," "The Larry Sanders Show"), Scott Grimes ("ER," "Justified"), Peter Macon ("Shameless," "Bosch"), Halston Sage ("Neighbors," "Goosebumps"), J Lee (FAMILY GUY, "The Cleveland Show"), Mark Jackson ("That Royal Today") and Chad L. Coleman ("The Walking Dead," "The Wire").

THE ORVILLE is produced by 20thCentury Fox Television. The series was created and written by Seth MacFarlane. MacFarlane, Brannon Braga ("Terra Nova"), David A. Goodman (FAMILY GUY), Jason Clark ("Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey," "Ted") and Liz Heldens ("Mercy," "Deception") serve as executive producers on the series. Jon Favreau ("The Jungle Book," "Iron Man") directed the pilot, on which he also served as an executive producer.

The Orville will premiere Sunday, Sept. 10 on Fox.
