‘Ted Lasso’ Star Billy Harris Talks Colin’s Big Episode: ‘I’ve Read Pretty Much Every Tweet’
Jenelle Riley Deputy Awards and Features Editor SPOILER ALERT: This interview contains spoilers for Season 3, Episode 6 of “Ted Lasso,” now streaming on Apple TV+. Shortly before Billy Harris landed the role of footballer Colin Hughes on the Apple TV+ smash “Ted Lasso,” he found himself without an agent. Rather than be discouraged, though, he sent a note to casting director Theo Park to let them know to keep him in mind for an upcoming project. “Lo and behold, a day later, this email came in about a show called ‘Ted Lasso,’” Harris recalls. Harris had only recently graduated from Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, and the show marked his television debut. Though little was known about in the first season, the actor relished the opportunity to learn the ropes from what he calls “the best of the best.”
