Ted Lasso actor Juno Temple discusses learning comedy on the job, and how her character Keeley helped her survive lockdown

Firstpost  

“It was a really good thing for my brain that I wasn’t playing a character going through troubled transitions or experiencing self-loathing or other complicated things I’ve tried to put out on screen,” says Juno Temple on playing Keeley Jones in Ted Lasso season 2. Brendan Hunt, a creator of Ted Lasso, called it “very, very dude-heavy.” But it has two superb parts for women: Rebecca Walton, the team’s owner, and Keeley Jones, the girlfriend of a star player. Brett Goldstein, a Ted Lasso actor and writer who plays Keeley’s Season 2 love interest, remembered when Temple’s name came up. I’ve done quite a few of them now.” Because Temple has so rarely done comedy, she learned it on Ted Lasso, beat by beat, scene by scene.
