Giovanni Ribisi Joins Seth MacFarlane's TED
GiovanniRibisi(Avatar)has been cast along side Mark Wahlberg, MilaKunis, Adam Scott and Seth MacFarlane in MacFarlane's first live-action comedy feature film Ted.
The movie is going to be a hard-R film that follows an average Boston guy (Wahlberg) who's normal except for the childhood wish he made that his teddy bear could come to life... and it did. Years later, the boy is an adult and the bear is still his best friend. But the bear, a carousing, irresponsible slacker, is getting in the way of his buddy committing to adulthood and the girl he loves. Ribisi will play Donny, a man who's obsessed with Ted.
It was previously reported that the film will also feature “a racist homosexual, a woman obsessed with talking about men shaving their assholes, and a ‘Jewish-looking’ person who makes anti-Semitic remarks.”
The Family Guy creator co-wrote the film with Alec Sulkin and Wellesley Wild. MacFarlane will be providing the voice of the CG-generated title character Ted.
I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out. MacFarlane has a pretty hilariously screwed up sense of humor.
