Star of Apple TV+ series ‘Ted Lasso’ hopes World Cup brings Los Angeles together

Apple TV+’s “Ted Lasso” has officially been renewed for a fourth season.
The creators and stars of the acclaimed comedy “Ted Lasso” joined others at a Los Angeles event on Wednesday, celebrating the one-year countdown to the World Cup and Brendan Hunt (Coach Beard) shared his hope that the tournament would unite people globally.

Los Angeles will be one of the main host cities for the soccer showpiece in North America, welcoming eight matches including the United States’ first match and a quarter-final.
Brendan Hunt, a co-creator and actor in the Apple TV+ show about an upstart British football team with a U.S. coach, said Americans should embrace the influx of visitors from around the world.
“What America needs to get ready for with this World Cup is something that most Americans instinctively know, but just to make sure for those who don’t – there will be many people here who were not born here,” Hunt said during an on-stage interview.
“And just because they weren’t born here, you don’t need to be afraid of them.”
“Platform used,” said fellow co-creator Jason Sudeikis, who plays Lasso on the show.

MacDailyNews Take: That sort of overbearing sanctimony ruined season three of “Ted Lasso.” Season four ought to be a doozy.
A tourist is someone who legally enters a country for a temporary stay, typically for leisure, with proper documentation like a visa or passport, and complies with immigration laws. An illegal alien is someone who enters or stays in a country without legal authorization, often bypassing immigration processes or overstaying a visa. The key differences are legal status and compliance, or lack thereof, with entry/stay regulations.

Hunt said the tournament would be incredible. “You have to prepare yourself to surrender to a vibe you’ve never quite seen before because when folks come to these cities to see their teams play, they will take over in a way that is absolutely as benevolent as it is overwhelming,” he added.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino said last month after meeting with U.S. President Trump he was confident visitors would be welcomed for the World Cup as well as the Club World Cup, which runs from June 14 to July 13 and also has matches in Los Angeles.
