Everyone's favorite foul-mouthed stuffed bear 'Ted' is set to make his return.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the sequel to Seth MacFarlane's 2011 comedy starring Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis, Joel McHale and Patrick Warburton, has received a June 26, 2015 release. MacFarlane will return as director, writer, and the voice of 'Ted' in the sequel. Wahlberg is also set to return.

In the first film film, Wahlberg plays John, a perfectly normal Boston native whose childhood wish for his Teddy Bear to come to life comes true. The bear (Ted) - voiced by MacFarlane himself - remains his best friend well into his adult years. Conflict emerges when Ted's irresponsible and vulgar slacker lifestyle comes in the way of John's attempt to embrace his adulthood and the woman of his dreams, Lori (Mila Kunis).

The film quickly became one of the highest-grossing rated R comedies of all time, taking in over $54 million during its opening weekend alone. Throughout its run at the box office during the summer of 2012, the film grossed a total of $218.8 million.
