Jason Sudeikis, who portrays the titular character in the series, talked about the series’ future during an interview with Deadline. The actor hinted that the show might not renew for another season as he said, “This is the end of this story that we wanted to tell, that we were hoping to tell, that we loved to tell.”

Talking about his future appearances as Ted Lasso, he said, “I mean, there’s always Cameo, right?” The Horrible Bosses actor said that he could always make an appearance in cameos if there are related series or probably a Ted Lasso spin-off.
