Sudeikis grew up in Overland Park, Kan. His path in show business began by taking classes at KC’s ComedySportz Theater (now Comedy City).
Sudeikis performed with The Second City National Touring Company, ImprovOlympic, The Annoyance Theater, and Boom Chicago in Amsterdam before sending a tape of his work to the producers of “SNL.” After two years as a sketch writer, he found himself camera-side and never looked back.
Sudeikis stays busy with “Ted Lasso,” the Apple TV hit that has earned him both Emmys and Golden Globes. He also stars in Hulu’s animated Marvel series, “Hit Monkey.”
In addition to playing everyone’s favorite soccer coach, Sudeikis has a robust resume, including “Horrible Bosses,” “Hall Pass,” “We’re the Millers,” “Sleeping with Other People,” “Mother’s Day,” “Masterminds,” “Colossal,” and multiple appearances on his BFF Will Forte’s “The Last Man on Earth.”
