"Ted" star Mark Wahlberg dishes on the mischievous antics of Ted, his teddy bear co-star
The "Ted" premiere was met with screaming fans on Thursday (June 21) in Los Angeles, with actors lining up to talk about the film's star, a degenerate teddy bear.<br/> <br />Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis and Seth MacFarlane were seen on the red carpet laughing, presumably about the potty-mouthed stuffed animal. Wahlberg explained why his furry friend was still lovable despite his wild lifestyle.<br/> <br />SOUNDBITE Mark Wahlberg saying (English):<br/> <br />"Despite the fact that he's got the most foul mouth you've ever seen and he's a bad influence, he's also got a heart that's very sweet and very kind and very funny."<br/> <br />The R-rated comedy centers on a boy whose Christmas wish is fulfilled after his teddy bear comes to life. But that dream turns into a nightmare as they grow up. Wahlberg's character faces problems when his girlfriend, played by Mila Kunis, has issues with Ted's nefarious ways.<br/> <br />The stuffed bear is played by MacFarlane in a motion-capture suit.<br/> <br />"Ted" hits theaters June 29.<br/> <br />John Russell, Reuters.
