We spoke w/ the cast of 'Ted Lasso' about Season 3, Nate's heel turn, and living the Lasso way.
From co-creators Jason Sudeikis, Brendan Hunt, Joe Kelly and Bill Lawrence, the beloved fan favorite Apple TV+ series Ted Lasso is back for its third season with AFC Richmond trying to find their rhythm again, as Rupert takes full advantage of the fact that “wonder kid” Nate is now on the side of rivals West Ham United.
HANNAH WADDINGHAM: But also, you can’t beat the feeling, when people come up to you and say how much we got their families through one of the most difficult times in everyone’s lives. You can’t help but feel privileged about that. It doesn’t matter how many people stop you, they always say thank you. I don’t think I’ve ever been on something where people are like that.
BRENDAN HUNT: There are people that love each other. There are people that apologize. There are people that kick a ball around. Everything we did before is back, but in different shapes. GOLDSTEIN: Yeah, he absolutely does. I always think the tragic thing about Roy and Nate is that Roy always loved Nate and didn’t notice anything. He didn’t notice that Nate was jealous of Roy, or was always usurped by him. If you watch Season 2, I was always putting my hand on him. Roy loves him. And then, this has happened and it was like, “Oh, shit, I’ve gotta read fucking scouting reports.”
Nate made quite a heel turn in Season 2, but this is a show about complex people who essentially love one another. Do you believe that anyone and everyone can be redeemed and that their humanity can be used to pull them out of the darkness, or is a dick sometimes just a dick? Jason and Brendan, you originally conceived of Ted Lasso to be a three-season arc. How much of what we’ll be seeing this season evolved from what you envisioned, when you first started thinking about the show?
WADDINGHAM: I feel like it’s always been like that. It just evolves over time. There was the basic concept and the script, and then everyone comes in and that which we impart gets added to it. Season 3 is just an augmented version and vibe of Season 1. Nick, actors talk about how playing the villain can be more fun than playing a good guy. Have you found that to be the case?
