Why The New Henry Lasso Actor From Ted Lasso Season 4 Looks So Familiar

Ted Lasso is back on Apple TV, now with a different actor playing Ted's son Henry. Here's where you might have seen newcomer Grant Feely before.

Why The New Henry Lasso Actor From Ted Lasso Season 4 Looks So Familiar

In the fourth season of the popular Apple TV show "Ted Lasso," fans of the eccentric coach and his iconic mustache will be pleased to see some familiar faces from the previous seasons, even if they aren't played by the original actors. However, one character who has undergone a change is the young son of Ted Lasso, Henry Lasso. While Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, Jeremy Swift, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, and Brendan Hunt have all returned, Gus Turner, who portrayed Henry in the first three seasons, has been replaced by Grant Feely.

This decision was announced after the show's successful renewal for another season, with the first new episode finally released, making the shift official. For those who notice the change, the question inevitably arises: "Where do I know Grant Feely from?" One possible connection could be his role in the 2023 live-action film adaptation of the horror video game "Five Nights at Freddy's."

In this film, Josh Hutcherson plays a security guard who works the night shift at a condemned pizzeria, where he encounters possessed animatronic mascots. Grant Feely played one of the five children who died at the pizza place, which were later stuffed into the animatronics by a serial killer. Another potential connection to Feely's name might be his role in the Disney+ series "Obi-Wan Kenobi."

Although fans of the Star Wars franchise may not have seen the series, they are likely familiar with the character played by Feely. Grant portrays the younger version of Luke Skywalker, who is raised by his Aunt Beru and Uncle Owen on the planet Tatooine. In the series, Luke becomes more involved in his promise to protect his siblings when his estranged sister Leia is abducted by bounty hunters.
