Sudeikis plays the show’s title character, Ted Lasso, an American football coach leading a soccer team in London who suffers from debilitating panic attacks.

Sudeikis and other cast members of the Emmy Award-winning show will meet with the Bidens “to discuss the importance of addressing your mental health to promote overall well-being,” the White House said.

Biden on Sunday tweeted a photo of a yellow poster bearing the word “BELIEVE” above a door leading to the Oval Office. A similar sign is seen above Lasso’s office door in the AFC Richmond locker room on the show.

Cast members expected to visit the White House include Hannah Waddingham, Jeremy Swift, Phil Dunster, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, Toheeb Jimoh, Cristo Fernandez, Kola Bokinni, Billy Harris and James Lance.

The third season of the Emmy-winning Apple TV+ series began streaming last week.
