"Maximilian Osinski Joins 'Ted Lasso' as Lunatic Soccer Star"
Maximilian Osinski, known for his role in Agents of SHIELD, plays the soccer star Zava in the third season of Ted Lasso. Inspired by players like Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Osinski watched interviews and read books to prepare for the role. Co-creator Brendan Hunt says Zava is based on some of soccer's "more colorful divas." While there are rumors that season three may be the end of the show, Osinski leaves it up to Jason Sudeikis to decide the best course for the show.
