I’ve yet to meet anyone who’s watched “Ted Lasso” and not loved it. So, if you haven’t watched it, you should. If you have, make plans to meet one of the show’s stars in Denver in a couple of months.

Denver Film announced that Hannah Waddingham, who played Rebecca Welton, the owner of a soccer franchise in London on the show, will be in Denver in May.

She’s claimed Emmy and Critics Choice wins, as well as two Golden Globes for the role in “Ted Lasso,” but you might also recognize her from “Game of Thrones,” “Sex Education,” “Hocus Pocus 2” or “The Hustle.”

Denver Film announced that Waddingham will be at the Women+Film luncheon, accepting the Barbara Bridges Inspiration Award and joining the event for a conversation about her work in front and behind the scenes on May 16.

The event is ticketed at $150-$200. Get tickets here.
