Ted Lasso Officially Returns for Season 4 on Apple TV+

Ted Lasso fans rejoice! Apple TV+ has officially greenlit a fourth season of its beloved comedy series, with Jason Sudeikis set to reprise his role as the titular character and serve as an executive producer. This exciting announcement promises to bring back the heartwarming humor and charm that has captivated audiences since the show first premiered.

Returning Cast Members

Sources confirm that Juno Temple, who portrayed Keeley in the previous three seasons, is currently in negotiations to return alongside fellow original cast members. This includes Sudeikis as Coach Lasso, Hannah Waddingham as Rebecca, Brett Goldstein as Roy, and Jeremy Swift as Leslie, all of whom were secured for the new season back in August. Fans can expect the Season 4 premiere to pick up where Season 3 left off, with filming set to take place in Kansas, likely Kansas City, before the story shifts back to the UK.

Production and Writing Team

Production for Season 4 is slated to begin in July, and the writing team has already been hard at work for the past few months. The team primarily consists of Ted Lasso alumni, with co-showrunners Sudeikis and newcomer Jack Burditt leading the writers’ room. Burditt, known for his work on Modern Family and 30 Rock, has also contributed to the first season of Netflix’s Nobody Wants This.

Sudeikis Teases Season 4 Direction

In his first public comments about the upcoming season, Sudeikis hinted at new directions for the show. He stated, “As we all continue to live in a world where so many factors have conditioned us to ‘look before we leap,’ in Season 4, the folks at AFC Richmond learn to LEAP BEFORE THEY LOOK, discovering that wherever they land, it’s exactly where they’re meant to be.” This statement suggests an adventurous and optimistic tone for the new season.

AFC Richmond: The Heart of the Show

Despite Ted Lasso's return to Kansas at the end of Season 3, AFC Richmond, the fictional English football club where Ted coached, will continue to be the show's focal point. Interestingly, Sudeikis referred to the “folks” at the club, implying a focus on the management and coaching staff rather than the players. This aligns with the original cast members’ roles, who primarily represent the team’s management side.

Fan Theories and New Ventures

One popular fan theory suggests that Keeley and Rebecca’s impulsive decision to partner on a new venture—a women’s team for AFC Richmond—could serve as a pivotal plot point in Season 4. This move would certainly qualify as a leap of faith, setting the stage for exciting developments in the Ted Lasso franchise.

Bringing Back the Cast

The journey towards Season 4 began in August when Warner Bros Television exercised options on several original cast members under the UK acting union Equity. While Phil Dunster (Jamie) was not initially brought back due to a scheduling conflict, there is potential for him to reprise his role. Additionally, Nick Mohammed (Nate) has teased a possible return.

Negotiations and Deal Making

As for the rest of the cast, Sudeikis has secured a new deal encompassing both acting and producing roles. Juno Temple has been in negotiations for some time, with scheduling conflicts believed to be the main hurdle. Although Brendan Hunt (Coach Beard) currently lacks an acting deal, he has been actively involved in the writers’ room alongside Sudeikis and Goldstein.

A Global Phenomenon

Since its debut in August 2020, Ted Lasso has become a global sensation, earning 13 Emmy Awards during its first three seasons, including multiple wins for Outstanding Comedy Series. Its uplifting tone and relatable storytelling have resonated with audiences, making it one of Apple TV+'s most-watched original series.

Looking Ahead

Channing Dungey, Chairman and CEO of Warner Bros. Television Group, expressed excitement about the upcoming season, stating, “If ever there was a show the world needed more of right now, it would be Ted Lasso.” With the show's enduring popularity and commitment to spreading kindness and joy, the anticipation for Season 4 is palpable.

Production Partners

Ted Lasso is produced by Doozer Productions in association with Warner Bros Television and Universal Television, a division of NBCUniversal Content. The series is based on preexisting characters and formats from NBC Sports, ensuring that fans can expect the same beloved humor and heart in the upcoming season.
