EXCLUSIVE<\/strong>: Toheeb Jimoh, who broke out this past year on the Emmy-winning series Ted Lasso<\/em>, has signed with WME for representation.<\/p>\n

In the Apple TV+ sports comedy from creators Brendan Hunt, Joe Kelly and Bill Lawrence, which has exploded as a pop culture phenomenon since its August 2020 debut, the actor portrays Nigerian football player Sam Obisany.<\/p>\n

Jimoh, who was honored as this year’s Breakthrough Artist at the Critics Choice Association’s Celebration of Black Cinema & Television, will soon start production on Ted Lasso<\/em> Season 3, after wrapping production on Amazon Prime’s The Power<\/em>. The original drama series based on the bestselling novel by Naomi Alderman is set in the dystopian future and follows a group of girls who suddenly gain mysterious powers that allow them to electrocute people with their hands.<\/p>\n

Jimoh garnered strong reviews for his performance as the titular character in Jimmy McGovern’s one-off drama Anthony<\/em> for the BBC and can currently be seen in Wes Anderson’s The French Dispatc<\/em>h.<\/p>\n

His theater work includes an Ian Charleson Award nominated performance in Robert Hastie’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream<\/em> at the Sheffield Crucible and, most recently, Nine Lessons and Carols<\/em> at the Almeida Theatre.<\/p>\n

Jimoh continues to be represented by B-Side Management, Tapestry London and attorney Darren Tratner.<\/p>\n
