The much-loved Apple TV+ series, *Ted Lasso*, is set to return for a fourth season, as announced by star and producer Jason Sudeikis. During a recent appearance on the New Heights sports podcast hosted by Jason and Travis Kelce, Sudeikis confirmed that they are currently writing Season 4, 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 news comes after a snippet from the podcast's latest episode showcased the Kelce brothers pressing Sudeikis for updates on the show following the end of Season 3 in the summer of 2023. The announcement has been eagerly awaited by fans, marking the first concrete update on the series in nearly two years. While there's no confirmation yet on whether this will be the final season or the specific location where it will be set, 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."
According to Deadline, Juno Temple, who plays Keeley, is in negotiations to reprise her role, while Hannah Waddingham, Brett Goldstein, and Jeremy Swift are confirmed to return as Rebecca, Roy, and Leslie, respectively. The report also mentions that filming for the first episode of Season 4 is expected to start in Kansas City before moving to the UK, with production set to begin in July.
Apple TV+ is already working to reignite interest in *Ted Lasso*. Although no release date or detailed plot information has been revealed, the show's official X/Twitter account playfully acknowledged its hiatus with a post saying, "Finally found the dang password to this thing. Sorry y'all. What'd I miss?"
The last significant update on *Ted Lasso* was in the summer of 2024, when Deadline reported that Season 4 was gearing up for a greenlight.
