In 2020, Brett began playing Roy Kent on "Ted Lasso" alongside Jason Sudeikis (who also co-created the series). Co-creator Bill Lawrence initially hired Goldstein as a writer only, but he felt a kinship with the character of Roy. Brett told "For the Win" in 2021, "I saved it until the very end of the writer's room. I didn't tell anyone but I made a self-tape. I did five scenes as Roy. I emailed it when I left. I said: 'Look, I've had a wonderful time. I've been thinking that I think I can play Roy. I think I really get it. But if this makes you at all uncomfortable or if this video is shit and if you're at all embarrassed for me, then just pretend you never got it. I will never ask if you got it. We can still be friends.'" Goldstein has won several awards for his performance on "Ted Lasso," including a Primetime Emmy and a Critics' Choice Television Award. In 2020, he co-created the anthology series "Soulmates" with his "SuperBob" co-writer Will Bridges, who has also written for "Black Mirror" and "Stranger Things."
