A Million Ways to Die, which Seth MacFarlane is starring in, directing and co-writing, is a Blazing Saddles-style comedy that follows a sheepish farmer (MacFarlane) who chickens out of a gunfight and sees his girlfriend (Amanda Seyfried) leave him.
When he meets the wife (Charlize Theron) of a notorious outlaw who offers to teach him how to shoot, the farmer at first sees a chance to win back his love but slowly falls for the woman. Complications ensue when the outlaw returns and reclaims his woman.
