'Ted Lasso' reunion: Jason Sudeikis and Hannah Waddingham share 'A Star Is Born' duet

"Ted Lasso" stars Jason Sudeikis and Hannah Waddingham reunited by belting the night away over the weekend.
The pair shared the stage and covered the 2018 "A Star is Born" track "Shallow" at Sudeikis' annual Thundergong! charity event in Kansas City, Missouri, on Saturday.
Sudeikis started the duet with comedian and former "Saturday Night Live" co-star Will Forte onstage, but traded him out for Waddingham to sing the Oscar-winning track originally performed by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper.
Sudeikis starred as the titular character in "Ted Lasso" alongside Waddingham, who plays Rebecca Welton, Lasso's team owner. The series follows an embattled English football squad and the sunny American college football coach and has won several honors, including Primetime Emmy Awards for outstanding comedy series two years in a row.
The Apple TV+ series ended its third season in May. It is unclear whether "Ted Lasso" will get a fourth season, with Sudeikis, who also serves as co-creator and executive producer, suggesting to Deadline that Season 3 is the show's final outing on the pitch.
"This is the end of this story that we wanted to tell, that we were hoping to tell, that we loved to tell," he told the outlet.
When asked about a possible fourth in an interview with USA TODAY, Sudeikis offers a delicate "I mean, could there be? Sure." But he emphasized that Season 3's 12-episode run, which he oversaw, wraps up the three-season arc he and fellow creators Bill Lawrence, Brendan Hunt and Joe Kelly initially pitched off a short "Lasso" promo created for NBC Sports.
He also addressed speculation about future spinoffs.
"The more-seasons thing was not a factor for us, and it still isn't. We light some fuses this season that need to explode, and it's up to other people just how bright and how loud those explosions are," he said, referring perhaps either to fans or to Warner Bros. Television and Apple, who produce and distribute the show, respectively. "It's for them to make their assessments and judgments, if you will."
