Why Brett Goldstein Is Comparing ‘Ted Lasso' Season 4 Renewal to a Dead Cat
The surprise Ted Lasso season four renewal has Brett Goldstein's head spinning a bit. During a recent interview on NPR's Wild Card podcast, the actor-writer-producer, who plays Roy Kent, shared that he's 'in the writers' room at the moment' for the Apple TV+ series' revival, which he also compared to a cat coming back from the dead. More from The Hollywood Reporter 'Angry Birds 3' Lands at Paramount, Sets Winter 2027 Release Juno Temple to Star in 'The Husbands' Dramedy at Apple TV+ Julia Stiles Says She Felt "So Slimy" During Harvey Weinstein-Led Reshoots for 'Down to You' 'I have a friend that I went to university with, and I think about this a lot,' Goldstein explained. 'He had a cat that died. He loved his cat, and the cat was run over, and they buried the cat, buried it. And he was a child. They buried the cat in the garden, and he lay in bed so sad, so upset and crying, and he prayed and he prayed and he wished. 'I wish the cat would come back.' And then the cat did come back, and it turned out the cat they buried wasn't their cat. And I think about that all the time.' The Shrinking star and co-creator, 'And so, I'm like, no wonder this guy is fucked in the head, because he thinks death isn't real, so of course he's insane. He's such a weird guy, 'cause he thinks he can bring things back from the dead.' And basically, Goldstein feels 'like that kid' at the moment, as Ted Lasso co-creators Jason Sudeikis, Bill Lawrence, Brendan Hunt and Joe Kelly initially planned for the show to run only three seasons. But after more than a year of speculation following the season three finale in May 2023, Apple TV+ ordered a fourth season last month. 'Like 'We buried it,'' Goldstein said with a laugh. ''We all cried, we had a funeral. Are you saying we can bring anything back?' It's too much power.' Sudeikis, Goldstein, Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple and Jeremy Swift are all set to reprise their roles for the fourth installment. Sudeikis previously teased of the coming season in a statement, 'As we all continue to live in a world where so many factors have conditioned us to look before we leap, in season four, the folks at AFC Richmond learn to LEAP BEFORE THEY LOOK, discovering that wherever they land, it's exactly where they're meant to be.'

Paramount Pictures has officially announced the release of Angry Birds 3, set to hit theaters on January 29, 2027, marking a bold return to animation amid a booming market for video game movie adaptations. The news arrives as the Minecraft movie stuns at the box office, showing growing global demand for game-based entertainment. Unlike the previous two installments, Angry Birds 3 will be produced by DNEG Animation and Sega Sammy Group, the new parent company of Rovio, without involvement from Sony Pictures, who distributed the original films. Keke Palmer and Lily James will join the original voice cast, promising new comedic dynamics. The first Angry Birds Movie (2016), directed by Clay Kaytis and Fergal Reilly, grossed $352.3 million globally, while the sequel, Angry Birds Movie 2 (2019), brought in $147.8 million, totaling over $500 million worldwide. The second film, directed by Thurop Van Orman, received critical praise and holds a 73% Rotten Tomatoes score, making it one of the most successful video game-based animated films pre-COVID. This new sequel comes at a time when gaming IPs are thriving in Hollywood. Following the success of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, sequels like Super Mario Bros. 2, Five Nights at Freddy's 2, and Mortal Kombat 2 are also in development, highlighting a trend of studios betting big on beloved video game franchises. The Angry Birds franchise originally launched as a mobile game in 2009, quickly evolving into a multimedia brand. Paramount's move into animation with this title aligns with past efforts like The SpongeBob Movie, Wonder Park, and PAW Patrol: The Movie. With new talent, a fresh studio, and momentum from current box office trends, Angry Birds 3 is poised to soar once again in 2027.
