While I love the twists and turns of a suspenseful drama, there's something to be said for feel-good television. And perhaps no show has done it better over the years than Ted Lasso.
Now, there's officially more Ted Lasso-goodness to come, with Apple TV+ renewing the series for season 4. Jason Sudeikis will, of course, return as the titular character, bringing back his unique brand of heartwarming storytelling. In case you've somehow managed to miss the hype of the first three seasons, Ted is an American football who is hired to manage a British soccer team. Embarking halfway across the world for the challenge, what he lacks in knowledge about the sport, he makes up for in optimism, determination, and humour.
Rumours of a fourth season have been swirling for some time, with Sudeikis' co-star Nick Mohammed (who plays Nick Shelley), hinting that filming was underway back in January. Taking to X, Mohammed announced that he was rescheduling his upcoming Show Pony comedy tour, “for some filming I have not been able to shift for love of money.”
He continued, “I cannot say what that filming is. But it will be announced shortly."

But it was what he did next that really drove home the theory of a new Ted Lasso season four: holding up a sing hand-painted with the word 'BELIEVE' (a trademark of Ted Lasso), Mohammed said: “In the meantime, I would really appreciate if people just didn’t speculate as to what they think it might be. The last thing I want is for people to be going mad.”
What is the latest on Ted Lasso season four?
Although filming is yet to begin, Hanah Waddingham, who plays Rebecca Welton, said she was eager to get reacquainted with her character. “It feels like it was the most beautiful, beloved dog that was buried, and now we’ve exhumed it, and I am here for it,” she told Variety. “I was hankering and hankering and hankering and hankering to see where Rebecca had gone, where she was going to. She’s my girl. She’s in my bloodstream, so I’m thrilled that it’s been exhumed.”
Who is cast in Ted Lasso season four?
So far, Sudeikis is the only cast member confirmed to return, but if we had to guess, both Mohammed and Waddingham will also be joining him.
Brett Goldstein, who plays Roy Kent, also seems likely to return, telling Variety in June, “Obviously, I can’t tell you a single thing about it, of course, but we’re working on it, and it’s good. It’s exciting to have everyone back together.”
Other favourites we're hoping to see return to our screens include Jeremy Swift as Leslie Higgins, and Juno Temple as Keeley Jones.
What else do we know about Ted Lasso season four?
In short, not a lot. Sudeikis did, however, release a statement about the series' return, saying: “As we all continue to live in a world where so many factors have conditioned us to ‘look before we leap.' In season four, 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.”
When does Ted Lasso season four come out?
As for exactly when this trilogy will become a tetralogy, that's still unclear. We'll keep you updated as we know more.
