The first trailer is here for Seth MacFarlane‘s feature directorial debut Ted. It’s a red-band version so you can expect a profanity laden glimpse at what looks to be a very entertaining flick from the weird and inventive mind of the illustrious creator of Family Guy.
The story’s unlikely premise has John Bennett’s (Mark Wahlberg) childhood wish bringing his teddy bear to life. But in the years that have followed, Ted’s become a pot smoking and over bearing presence, which doesn’t bode well for Wahlberg’s burgeoning romance with Meg Griffin herself, Mila Kunis. The bear is voiced by Macfarlane who also acted the part via motion-capture.
Here’s the synopsis:
Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane brings his boundary-pushing brand of humor to the big screen for the first time as writer, director and voice star of Ted. In the live action/CG-animated comedy, he tells the story of John Bennett (Mark Wahlberg), a grown man who must deal with the cherished teddy bear who came to life as the result of a childhood wish…and has refused to leave his side ever since.
The film also stars Joel McHale,Patrick Warburton, Giovanni Ribisi and the voice of MacFarlane as Ted.
