 Did You Know In TED LASSO…









  • That the EA Sports game FIFA became a big influence on the actors in the show? During the 2020 pandemic, when production on Ted Lasso slowed down, actors Jason Sudeikis, Joe Kelly and Brendan Hunt all became avid players of the popular soccer videogame. The actors would frequently play against each other and even created an AFC Richmond team to play online against each other.

  • Whilst playing, Billy Harris professed to being an “encyclopedia of Drake songs” and this was written into the show as being a character trait of Colin. In the new edition of the FIFA franchise FIFA 23, gamers can now play as AFC Richmond, and their titular boss, even has his own avatar in the new edition of the popular videogame.
