Exciting news for fans of the heartwarming Apple TV+ series, Ted Lasso! Jason Sudeikis, the star and producer, has officially confirmed that the show is set to return for a fourth season. The announcement came during a lively discussion on the New Heights sports podcast, hosted by NFL brothers Jason and Travis Kelce. In the latest episode, Sudeikis shared a thrilling update, stating, "That’s what we’re writing. We’re writing Season 4 now. That’s the official word, yeah. Ted’s coaching a women’s team."
This marks the first significant update on the continuation of Ted Lasso in nearly two years, bringing relief and excitement to fans eagerly awaiting more of the feel-good soccer series. While details such as whether Season 4 will be the final chapter or the setting remain under wraps, Sudeikis humorously dodged questions about Ted's potential return to the U.S., saying, "Yeah, that’s too many questions, and that’s only because I don’t know."
Adding to the anticipation, Deadline reports that Juno Temple, who plays Keeley, is in negotiations to return, joining confirmed cast members Hannah Waddingham (Rebecca), Brett Goldstein (Roy), and Jeremy Swift (Leslie). Sources indicate that filming for the first episode of Season 4 will commence in Kansas City before moving to the UK, with production set to start in July.
Apple TV+ is already ramping up efforts to bring Ted Lasso back into the public eye. Although no specific release date or plot details have been revealed, the show's official X/Twitter account playfully acknowledged its long hiatus with a post: "Finally found the dang password to this thing. Sorry y’all. What’d I miss?"
The last major update on Ted Lasso was in the summer of 2024, when Deadline reported that Season 4 was nearing greenlight status.
