It’s transfer time for Phil Dunster, who has played AFC Richmond’s star striker Jamie Tartt on the Emmy-winning comedy drama Ted Lasso for three seasons. The actor is joining Gugu Mbatha-Raw on Season 2 of her psychological thriller Surface, Breaking Baz can reveal.
Both Ted Lasso and Surface are part of the Apple TV+ universe.
Surface launched on the streamer last summer and audiences were intrigued with the tale created by Veronica West (High Fidelity) about a woman called Sophie (played by Mbatha-Raw) who has amnesia after a suicide attempt in San Francisco.
Sophie is a medical professional and resides in a swanky house in a tony district of San Francisco. The Hitchcockian mystery of it all is: If Sophie’s life was so seemingly perfect, why did she try to end it by jumping from a boat into the ocean?
“It’s like I’ve woken up in someone else’s life,” Sophie complains to her therapist, played by Marianne Jean-Baptiste.
Season 2 will shoot in and around London, where I hope the property porn is as good as it looks in San Francisco for Season 1.
Apparently just two characters will resurface in Season 2 of Surface. One of those will clearly be Mbatha-Raw.
I haven’t viewed all eight episodes yet, so it’s difficult for me to hazard a guess as to who else will reappear.
Except, I do know Dunster’s in it but it’s not me for to spoil it all by spilling the beans on what kind of character he’ll be playing.
Nor will I offer thoughts about another role that’s very likely to go to Suki Waterhouse; that deal hasn’t finalised yet.
Waterhouse is piping hot right now thanks to her portrait of a Brit rock musician in Amazon’s Daisy Jones & The Six, which also stars Riley Keough, Sam Claflin, Will Harrison, Josh Whitehouse, Camila

However, for a show that's built a reputation on gentle, feel-good comedy, it seems like the final part of the journey might be a bit heavy, as nearly all of our favorite characters start out the season dealing with some darkness in their lives.First, there's Ted (Jason Sudeikis), who is starting to have some existential questions about why he's still across the pond after all — especially after a long visit from his son, Henry (Gus Turner), and a viral moment when he's spotted taking the AFC Richmond team down into the London sewers.
