Halfway into the show at Madison Square Garden, the camera panned to a surprise guest in the crowd: Sudeikis. He was nodding his head to the music at first and then smiled and ran on stage to finish out the song with the band. The crowd erupted in cheers for the actor and the duet.

The Ted Lasso theme song was co-written by composer Tom Howe and Mumford & Sons frontman Marcus Mumford, the latter of which also performed the song that plays near the beginning of each episode.

On Tuesday, Mumford later told the New York crowd to quiet down “or I’m going to stick Ted on you.” He also mentioned that he worked on the music for the Coen Brothers’ 2013 film Inside Llewyn Davis, which starred Oscar Isaac and his wife, Carey Mulligan. Isaac later joined him on stage to perform a song.

The fourth season of Ted Lasso premiered earlier this month. However, Sudeikis initially intended for the sports comedy-drama to end with 2023’s season three. In a recent cover story for The Hollywood Reporter, the actor opened up about having second thoughts when the last season wrapped, leading to him developing the never-supposed-to-happen fourth season. “I was like, ‘Oh, I don’t know if it’s done,’” he told THR.

In July, Sudeikis also made a surprise appearance in the first-ever FIFA World Cup Final halftime show, where his Ted Lasso character shared some words of encouragement to co-headliner Justin Bieber before he performed.
