Seth MacFarlane, who wrote and directed both Ted movies in addition to voicing the vulgar teddy bear, has finalizing a deal with NBCUniversal’s Peacock for a live-action prequel TV series.
It’s unclear when Ted: The Series will go into production, as MacFarlane is currently focused on the third season of the sci-fi comedy series The Orville.
Seth MacFarlane will write the script for the Ted series.
The Peacock series will have the same wish fulfillment and fun of the classic movies, while delving more into the adventures and backstory of the beloved foul-mouthed teddy bear and his family.”
