    WHAT BRETT GOLDSTEIN SAID

    Goldstein, who plays foul-mouthed player-turned-pundit Kent, told USA Today when quizzed on his role behind and in front of the camera: “What I can say is I'm back in a professional capacity as an executive producer and writer.”

  • TELL ME MORE

    Goldstein has remained coy amid the constant questions of a potential return for Ted Lasso, but claims to have always believed that another series would be lined up. He added: "I cried and we had such an emotional goodbye. But I do think a part of me thought this wasn't the end. I just felt like it's such a lovely world. It sort of felt like surely there'll be a way to do more.

    “I guess I then thought maybe it isn't going to happen. So then when it was happening, I was like, ‘Ah, wonderful.’ But I wasn't completely surprised, because I think in my heart I thought there'd be more.”
