Owen Wilson Is Aiming for the Ted Lasso Effect with Apple TV+ Comedy Stick

  • The Apple TV+ show Stick premiered on June 4, 2025, starring Owen Wilson as former pro golfer Pryce Cahill and Peter Dager as teen golf prodigy Santiago Wheeler.
  • The series follows Pryce, whose life unravels amid a divorce and job loss, as he meets Santiago, a gifted but reluctant golf talent, resembling the Ted Lasso dynamic.
  • Peter Dager, a 22-year-old Miami native who moved to New York at 18, earned his breakthrough role after six auditions and multiple screen tests despite never playing golf before.
  • Owen Wilson characterized Pryce as someone who has faced hardship yet continues to persevere with determination and hope, while creator Jason Keller emphasized that although the show shares some superficial similarities with Ted Lasso, its tone is distinctively different.
  • Stick explores the challenges of connection and growth in complex relationships, suggesting its themes of struggle and mentorship may resonate widely with audiences seeking heartfelt sports comedy.
