Before “Ted Lasso,” Sudeikis was typecast as a smarmy douche in film after film, TV guest shots, too.

In this Oct. 8 release, he plays an ex con who longs to give the great love of his life one last great year.

She’s played by Evangeline Lilly, and her character is dying of cancer.

Sudeikis is getting a shot at a different career arc and a wider range of characters, if nothing else. Thanks, Hulu.
