"Ted" Animated Sequel Series in Works with Mark Wahlberg, Amanda Seyfried Returning
Yara Sameh
Peacock has ordered an animated series based on Seth MacFarlane's foul-mouthed teddy bear film franchise 'Ted".
Exact plot details are being kept under wraps, but the animated series will take place after the events of the two 'Ted' live-action features.
MacFarlane will once again voice Ted, with Mark Wahlberg, Amanda Seyfried, and Jessica Barth reprising their film roles as John, Sam, and Tami-Lynn, respectively.
In addition, Kyle Mooney will voice the new character Apollo, while Liz Richman will voice Ruth.
This is the second 'Ted' TV show at Peacock, as the streamer also currently airs a live-action prequel series. That show launched in Jaunary 2024 and broke records as Peacock's most-watched original title to date. A second season is currently in the works.
MacFarlane also voices Ted in that show, while Richman played John's high school classmate Polly in multiple episodes.
The role keeps Seyfried in business with Peacock, as the Emmy-winning actress recently starred in the limited series 'Long Bright River' at the streaming service.
MacFarlane serves as writer and executive producer on the new animated series in addition to starring, with Paul Corrigan and Brad Walsh serving as writers, executive producers, and showrunners. Corrigan and Walsh are also showrunners on the prequel series.
Erica Huggins, Alana Kleiman, Jason Clark, and Aimee Carlson of MacFarlane's Fuzzy Door Entertainment also executive produce along with Claudia Katz of Rough Draft. UCP produces along with Fuzzy Door and MRC.
The first 'Ted' movie proved to be a major box office hit, grossing nearly $550 million on a budget of $65 million in 2012. The 2015 sequel grossed over $215 million. Both films were produced by Universal Pictures and MRC Films.
