In 2012, Ted was a box office smash, breaking R-Rated comedy box office records with a whopping total of nearly $550 million worldwide. It should come as no surprise then that the sequel will reach us in 2015.

Seth MacFarlane is once again writing, directing, and voicing the motion-capture creation, and you have to believe he’s hoping for another hit after a disappointing performance by A Million Ways to Die in the West.

As you can see from the first official image from Ted 2, Mark Wahlberg will be reuniting with his “Thunder Buddy” for the sequel, and with Family Guy star Mila Kunis deciding not to return, he’ll also be joined by Amanda Seyfried. Other cast members include Liam Neeson, Morgan Freeman, and Patrick Warburton.

Little is know about the sequel, but MacFarlane promises that the sequel won’t up the ante in regards to introducing more talking teddies! “It’s basically the way we treated Stewie in Family Guy. ‘He’s the only one of his kind who can talk.'” We do know that Ted 2 will see the titular character pay a visit to the San Diego Comic-Con which should be a lot of fun and leaves the door wide open for plenty of surprise cameos.

Ted 2 is set to be released on June 26th, 2015. Stay tuned to HeyUGuys as a sequel can’t be too far away…
