Ted Lasso has been the best thing to ever happen to Jason Sudeikis.

It has skyrocketed the 47-year-old both in earnings and reputation. Ted Lasso is not only one of the more successful series around (both in terms of popularity and critical acclaim) but also is paying the comedian handsomely following his nasty breakup with ex-Olivia Wilde.

Currently, the third season of Ted Lasso is earning Sudeikis a significant paycheck. However, he is not the only star of the Apple TV+ series also benefiting from season three. As a result, check out the highest-earning cast members (ranked from least to wealthiest):

5. Juno Temple

Juno Temple is one of the most underrated cast members on Ted Lasso. The British actress has received multiple SAG Awards and Emmy nominations for her performance in the comedy. She plays one of the most beloved characters on the show and always brings laughter with Keeley.

Fittingly, Temple is also earning well for her accomplishments. Apple is currently forking over $125,000-$150,000 per episode for season three. Not bad for an actress that originally started out as a guest star and was only receiving $50k for the first two seasons.

4. Brendan Hunt

Brendan Hunt has also witnessed a significant pay increase on Ted Lasso. Hunt, who plays Lasso's level-headed and long-time assistant and friend, has been rewarded for his patience. The 50-year-old received a comparable raise to Juno Temple between seasons two and three.

Now, he is earning in the ballpark of $125,000 to $150,000 per episode. The raise is well deserved for Hunt, who also serves as a writer and executive producer on the TV show.

3. Hannah Waddingham

Hannah Waddingham plays Rebecca Welton on Ted Lasso. She's known as the sympathetic yet vindictive owner of AFC Richmond. Initially, she only wants Lasso because he is bound to fail. However, her thoughts have gradually shifted - as has her payday on Ted Lasso.

Season three of Ted Lasso is earning Waddingham approximately $150,000 per episode. She won a Primetime Emmy Award for her comedy performance in the TV series.

2. Brett Goldstein

Brett Goldstein also earns in the neighborhood of $150,000 per episode for season three of Ted Lasso. It's high praise for the 42-year-old British actor, who also does double duty on the TV series, acting as a writer and executive producer.

1. Jason Sudeikis

Generally, the star of a smash sensation receives the biggest payday.

Thus, it's not surprising that Sudeikis tops the list as the highest earner on Ted Lasso. The 47-year-old comedian is making bank with Ted Lasso, reportedly earning around $1 million per episode of season three. When you do the math, that's a whole lot of cheddar.

The $1 million per episode rivals the highest-paid actors on any TV show (including Yellowstone) and is a tremendous jump from the $250,000 to $300,000 Sudeikis was receiving for seasons one and two of Ted Lasso.
