Seth MacFarlane To Make Feature Directorial Debut

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

The creator of Family Guy is making his move to the big screen.

Seth MacFarlane (Family Guy, American Dad) will be making his directorial debut with Ted, a $65 million hard-R live action and CGI hybrid comedy, for Universal Pictures. The film centers on a seemingly normal man who, as a child, made a wish that he could talk to his bear, only to have his bear come alive. The bear grows up alongside the man and their relationship isn’t really questioned until the man’s girlfriend poses an ultimatum: her or the bear.

MacFarlane would voice the bear as well as play some sort of co-starring role (not the lead), while Family Guy’s  Mila Kunis is set to play the girlfriend character. No word on who would be playing the main character.

Seems like it could be pretty funny. I like the high concept quite a bit. Definitely fits MacFarlane’s s sensibilities. What do you guys think?
