The tease, though, feels like it's more than just a coincidence. Okay, FIFA 23 is less than a week from release , with the soccer title set to launch on Tuesday, September 27. Hinting at Ted and Richmond's arrival a week before the game is out, then, might simply be a marketing strategy to drum up interest in the gameThere's no denying, though, that Ted Lasso's possible appearance in FIFA 23 is more than a mere coincidence.
Production costs are reportedly starting to cause problems, too. One source told Puck that Ted Lasso season 3 was already 20 to 30 per cent over budget, resulting in Apple and Warner Bros. Television tussling over who will stump up the cash to allow filming – and the series' lengthy post-production phase – to be completed.The lack of clarity around Ted Lasso season 3's wrap date also means that no release date has been yet, either, and that's a big problem for Apple.
