It remains unknown what character the actor will play in the movie, set for release on 26 June next summer.
“Yesterday Liam Neeson, today Morgan Freeman. Not a bad week for #Ted2,” creator MacFarlane tweeted on Wednesday.
MacFarlane is returning as the voice of the lead teddy bear, while Mark Wahlberg and Amanda Seyfried will also feature.
Neeson starred in MacFarlane's comedy A Million Ways to Die in the West earlier this year but unlike the original Ted, which grossed £281.5 million at the global box office in 2012, it only made £10.4 million in its opening weekend.
