Mila Kunis did not come back to play Lori because she was pregnant. In an early draft of the script, someone mentioned that Lori died between the two movies. That idea was considered too depressing, so it was changed to John and Lori getting divorced.
Kunis' absence was quickly glossed over in Ted 2, as it's revealed that Lori and John simply got divorced. Given that the concept was changed to Ted's legal battle with Ted going to court in Ted 2, MacFarlane had a simple fix by making Ted's lawyer John's new love interest.
It's unlikely that Mila Kunis would return as John's original love interest, Lori Collins, since Kunis didn't come back for Ted 2. She was replaced by Amanda Seyfried as Samantha L. Jackson, who started dating John at the end of Ted 2, setting them up for a relationship arc in Ted 3.
The last time Mark Wahlberg sat on a couch drinking a beer with a bear was 2015, and while Ted 3 isn't happening, a Ted prequel series has already wrapped production.
However, Ted lures John away to a party at his apartment with the pressured offer to meet Sam J. Jones, the star of their favorite film, Flash Gordon. John intends to stay only a few minutes, but gets caught up in the occasion. Lori finds John there and kicks him out of the apartment, breaking up with him.

Ted and Tami-Lynn remarry and adopt a baby boy, naming him after Rocky character "Apollo Creed", while John and Sam happily pursue their own relationship. John even gives Apollo Creed a teddy bear of his own.
Mila Kunis did not return to play Lori in the second film as she was pregnant, so she denied. Someone in the studio mentioned that Lori died sometime between the first and second film but the idea was turned as it was too depressing; so the director decided to make John and Lori divorced.
It appears that despite John and Lori's best efforts to repair him, Ted does in fact die. However, it's never explicitly stated in the movie, and given the magical nature of Ted's very existence and his return in the morning, it's tough to determine if he was ever truly dead.
John Bennett was 35 during the first Ted film, nearly two decades older than the age he was when he first wished on the star that brought his childhood toy alive.
Family Guy's Season 21 finale just married off Meg Griffin, however, fans shouldn't worry that this will result in star Mila Kunis' departure. According to reputable outlet TVLine, Kunis will continue to voice Meg when Family Guy returns for Season 22 in 2024.
John and Lori are married in a ceremony presided over by Sam Jones. Rex gives up his relationship with Lori after she marries, so he undergoes a deep depression, and dies of Lou Gehrig's disease (which John wished he would die from earlier in the film).
Parents need to know that Ted 2 is the sequel to Seth McFarlane's mega-successful Ted -- and, like the first, it's a very vulgar comedy filled with drugs, sexual references, and extremely strong language (constant use of "f--k," "s--t," "a--hole," and many others).
Even comedies earn Mark Wahlberg the big bucks! In 2012, the actor starred in "Ted," which reportedly added $7.5 him to his bank account. The film earned $549 million around the world and paved the way for a 2015 sequel. Mark Wahlberg's sports drama "Invincible" came out in 2006.
He was Lori's former boss and manager and John's arch-rival. At the end of the film, the narrator revealed that Rex gave up his pursuit of Lori and died of Lou Gehrig's disease (which John had previously wished on him) after becoming severely depressed.
In the wake of the backlash to their video, Kutcher resigned as chair of the board of Thorn, an anti-human trafficking organization that targets child sex abuse. Kutcher co-founded Thorn with fellow actor and ex-wife Demi Moore in 2009. Kunis also stepped down from her role as observer on the organization's board.
The last time Michelle is seen in Ted Lasso is when Ted is coaching at his son Henry's soccer game, and Michelle appears at the sidelines cheering for Ted and their son. While the show never explicitly confirms whether Ted and Michelle are back together, this scene clearly implies that this is indeed the case.
In the final episode of the series, "Last Forever", it is revealed that Ted finally meets his wife, whose name is shown to be Tracy McConnell, at a train station as he is about to leave for Chicago.
It's unfortunate that the How I Met Your Mother Tracy death had to happen at all, as it meant HIMYM took viewers on an 9 season journey only to have Ted end up with Robin in the end anyway. To have so much buildup surrounding a character's identity, only to have them die, was a huge letdown.
Ted Mosby was 27 at the start of How I Met Your Mother and met Tracy when he was 35. He eventually ends up with Robin when he is 52. Robin was 25 in Himym season 1 and got married to Barney at the age of 33. She is 50 when she gets back together with Ted in the series finale.
