'He still makes mistakes, he’s still an idiot, but he's just a lovable idiot now,' the actor reflects on his Ted Lasso fan-favorite character.
While Tartt started out as your stereotypical, egotistic midfielder who fans of the show spent the first season hating on, he quickly became a fan favorite on the Apple TV+ series that is known for its abundance of lovable characters. But ask Phil Dunster, the 31-year-old actor who portrays Tartt about his feelings about the role and you’ll hear that he’s “loved [Jamie] from the very first time he met him.
When you started with Jamie in season 1, did you know where he was going to go? Did the writers tell you like,r were you just prepared for anything?this is where he's at now, this is maybe where he'll go Definitely, all of his swagger, his levels of coolness, his ability to be a primitive footballer, that was[laughs] I don’t know. I think the bits at the start of Jamie are quite far away from me. He's a very direct person and that's something that I can struggle with at times and I think a lot of people do. That’s one of the reasons he stands out in that group is because he has such self-belief, self-determination, and a defined personality.
