Since his early years in TV — he first appeared on Highway to Heaven in 1985 — Ribisi has been busy on-screen, and so it goes in 2012. He stars with Mila Kunis and Mark Wahlberg in Ted, a comedy out in July about a man whose childhood teddy bear comes to life. The film marks Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane’s bigscreen directorial debut. And in October, Ribisi teams with Sean Penn and Josh Brolin for the crime flick The Gangster Squad.
