The film sees a grown man (Mark Wahlberg) dealing with his cherished teddy bear that came to life as the result of a childhood wish.

Mila Kunis will play Wahlberg’s girlfriend, who wants their relationship to move to the next level and has had enough of the bear.

McHale will play Rex, Kunis' womanizing boss who constantly hits on her. Adam Scott was previously linked to the role. Giovanni Ribisi was cast earlier this week as an obsessed fan of Ted (voiced by Macfarlane)

MacFarlane also co-wrote the film with his Family Guy staffers Alec Sulkin and Wellesley Wild.
