Direct from Hollywood with Ryan Seacrest.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Bret Goldstein is becoming a household name thanks to this
hilarious portrayal of aging footballer Roy Kent on ted Lasso,
who's known for being a bit gruff and short onwards
except for the f bombs he drops with precision, but
off camera, Brett is actually pretty different from Roy for
the most part. He tells Variety, I do swear a
lot in real life. I'm also angry like him, but

(00:24):
I repress it to the extent that if it weren't
for playing Roy Kent, I probably have a hernia. I'm
also slightly more emotionally articulate than Roy. The way I
wish I was most like him was his early football skills.
I ain't that good at football, the words of Bret Goldstein.
Season three of ted Lasso is on Apple TV Plus
that's Direct from Hollywood.
