WHAT GOLDSTEIN SAID
Goldstein has told the Vulture’s Good One podcast of immersing himself in all things AFC Richmond: "I think it’s to do with the people and the characters and the actors. You have this plan, but then this world starts to build in front of you, and you fall in love with things you didn’t know you’d fall in love with. I don’t want to sound woo woo, but I do mean this.
Next Match
"You still have to stay open to the signs. You always have a plan, but the plan will change because someone is different and what everyone brings. So yes, we’ve stuck to that plan, but there’s so many new, wonderful things within it, that it’s like, ‘Oh, we could [do more]. I think, I don’t know, do you want to hang out in that world anymore? And if so, it’s only worth doing if you’re going to do it as well [as you’ve done] if not better’."
DID YOU KNOW?
Goldstein added on the eagerly-anticipated return of Ted Lasso, which he always believed was on the cards: "When the idea is there, if you remain open to it and the idea comes, you’re like, ‘Oh! That’s a good one.’ But then you’re like, ‘F*ck! Maybe there is more’."

WHAT NEXT FOR TED LASSO?
It is up to Sudeikis and Co to deliver on that "good" idea, with fans across the globe ready to ‘Believe’ once more as more intriguing tales are told in a story that appeared to have come to a close back in May 2023.
