'It does shape your mindset.' Jason Sudeikis reflects on how his character's unrelenting optimism had a lasting effect on him at a special Variety and AppleTVPlus Season 3 screening of “Ted Lasso.”
Chicago Bears coach Mike Ditka inspired Ted Lasso’s mustache, Hannah Waddingham has to fake her football knowledge and Jason Sudeikis cried at the finale of “Sex and the City” – these were just some of the revelations at a specialand Apple TV + Season 3 screening of “Ted Lasso” held last week at the Walter Reade Theater at Lincoln Center.
Cristo Fernández and Neil deGrasse Tyson pose for a selfie at the Variety and Apple TV+ Ted Lasso Season 3 Screening Sudeikis spoke about the inception of the Ted Lasso character, which he originally portrayed for a series of NBC Sports promos for England’s Premier League in 2013. The actor created the character and show with Joe Kelly and Hunt, who also stars as Lasso’s right-hand man, Coach Beard, and revealed his now infamous facial hair was inspired by a real-life figure.
Instead, “Ted Lasso” became known for his positive outlook, while not shying away from his struggles with panic attacks and mental health issues. But Sudeikis says for the most part, Lasso’s unrelenting optimism has a positive effect on him. “He’s a Weeble Wobble. He’d get knocked over, he’d pop back up and just kind of like, whatever, la-di-da. And it does shape your mindset, and it is pervasive,” said Sudeikis.
And it’s a vibe that co-star Waddingham thinks was key to the show’s success when it premiered in Aug. 2020. “I think that people – I certainly know I was a little bit tired of the whole endless comedy roasting situation,” she said. “I think it had got a little bit over the top. The fact that you can have something that is heartbreaking and achingly funny and kind, I think it’d become quite unusual. It felt like that needed to be reset.
