A bizarre theory has fans believing Brett Goldstein's role is not played by a human (via toofab)
"I just want to clear up something once and for all," he began."I am a completely real normal human man who just happens to live in a VFX house and does normal human basic things like rendering and buffering and transferring data, so I don't know what everyone's f------problem is."The theory grew a strong following on reddit after"Ted Lasso" fans began commenting on the sharpness and video game quality of Roy Kent's appearances in the show.
In fact, one user posted almost a year ago,"I just started watching the pilot, and i'm up to the scene where roy is called into teds office. Am i crazy or does he look like a complete cgi character?""he 100% is CGI," shared another fan."i swear he glows off the screen and looks like a halo character in movement and speech.
