Jason Sudeikis and ‘Ted Lasso’ cast meet with Biden for mental health discussion
Jake Tapper sits down with Jason Sudeikis for a one-on-one CNN Primetime conversation Friday, March 24 at 9 p.m. ET.
Washington (CNN) Ted Lasso and President Joe Biden are teaming up to – as the television football coach would say – “believe” in the importance of mental health.
Biden and first lady Dr. Jill Biden hosted actor Jason Sudeikis and other members of the cast of “Ted Lasso” at the White House on Monday for a conversation on mental health, Apple TV+ announced Sunday.
Cast members joining the discussion include Hannah Waddingham, Jeremy Swift, Phil Dunster, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, Toheeb Jimoh, Cristo Fernandez, Kola Bokinni, Billy Harris and James Lance.
The cast visited the White House briefing room on Monday ahead of the meeting with the Bidens.
“No matter who you are, no matter where you live, no matter who you voted for, we all probably – I assume, we all know someone who has or had been that someone ourselves actually, that’s struggled, that’s felt isolated, that’s felt anxious, that has felt alone,” Sudeikis said from the press secretary’s podium. “It’s actually one of the many things, that believe it or not, that we all have in common as human beings.”
Sudeikis said President Biden and his team were working on making sure Americans know about the options that are available to help with mental health, and White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said it was a cornerstone of Biden’s “unity agenda.”
“I know in this town, a lot of folks don’t always agree right? And don’t always feel heard seen listened to,” Sudeikis said. “But I truly believe that we should all do our best to help take care of each other.”
