One interesting detail about the listing is how it still refers to the series by the FC name, adding that the chosen applicant will partner with a FC 25 Coins art team. Only last month, EA suggested it was thinking of dropping the FC name, supposedly because it doesn‘t want pay $1 billion to keep using it.

Following this, the FC organizaiton itself released its own statement about how it has entered negotiations with other developers as part of its plans to expand its presence within the gaming sphere. Basically, there could be an entirely new generation of FC games in the FC 25 Ultimate Teamure that aren‘t from EA. EA may already have a new name for its football games going forward, but it has likely stuck to using the FC name in the job listing for simplicity‘s sake and to avoid any potential confusion.

Ted Lasso is one of television‘s biggest hits in 2021. and though the series showed its darker side in season two, it‘s safe to say the third act in AFC Richmond‘s story won‘t be as gritty as this new mashup between coach Lasso and The Batman.

Seeing as the show is still riding the success wave that came with its Emmy blowout, it‘s no surprise to see fan-made trailers pop up all over the place, with some daring to transfer Ted Lasso to horror and thriller territory. Suffice to say, there are few trailers as big right now as The Batman's exciting reveal during DC FanDome, and Richmond‘s uplifting South London setting still manages to mix well with Matt Reeves' chosen tone for Gotham.

The fantastic trailer made by Jason Gallagher opens up just like The Batman's, with the same lines about fear and the true meaning of the Bat-Signal for criminals. Ted‘s phone acts like one of the Riddler‘s enigmatic messages, although it helps that the football comedy has a proper villain too. Gallagher‘s chosen color palette and his scene selection also pair up perfectly with Ted Lasso's ugliest moments from season two, which when combined with The Batman's music will remind many that Ted is indeed the hero Richmond deserves and needs.

Of course, having The Batman's Warner Bros. logo on another Warner production such as Ted Lasso helps, but the icing on the cake here is probably Roy Kent‘s very real and loud cursing, which makes up for the absence of Robert Pattinson's criminal beatdown. Much like Ted Lasso, the kind of Bruce Wayne that fans see in The Batman could be one who‘s also struggling to deal with EA Sports FC Coins his own share of mental issues, so the crossover couldn‘t be any better.
