Ted Lasso Season 4: Cast, Release Date & All The Latest News

Just when we thought the story of the unflappable, mustachioed coach had wrapped up, Ted Lasso is officially returning for a fourth season—and it’s going to flip the script in the best way possible.

Ted’s New Challenge: Women’s Team Management

Gone are the days of AFC Richmond’s men’s squad hogging the spotlight. This time, Ted’s coaching a second-division women’s football team, and as Jason Sudeikis put it, the season’s mantra is “leap before you look.” Apparently, Richmond’s new players and staff are going to discover big changes—and bigger risks—as they tackle this next chapter.

From Goodbye to Green Light

At the end of Season 3, many viewers were convinced that was the finale. Ted returning to Kansas, Rebecca handing control to Roy, and Keeley hinting at a women’s team felt like a proper send-off. Turns out it was more like a “To be continued…” and fans are very glad of it. Jason Sudeikis officially confirmed in March 2025: Season 4 is officially happening—and he’s at the helm again, both as coach and executive producer.

New Location, Familiar Faces

Filming kicked off in July 2025, and the setting is branching out from AFC Richmond’s usual London backdrop to include Kansas City, Jason’s hometown—and a new vibe for the show.

The cast reprising its roles are core favorites: Jason Sudeikis (Ted), Hannah Waddingham (Rebecca), Brett Goldstein (Roy Kent), Juno Temple (Keeley), Jeremy Swift (Higgins), and Brendan Hunt (Coach Beard).

Though, Phil Dunster (Jamie Tartt) will not return as a regular—reported scheduling conflicts temporarily shelved him, though potential cameo still hangs in the air.

One twist: Henry Lasso, Ted’s son, has grown up (literally). A second-season-old Henry (formerly Gus Turner) will now be played by Grant Feely, reflecting his bigger role this time around.

The Official Logline (AKA Season 4 Theme)

Apple TV+ describes it like this: Ted returns to Richmond, taking on his biggest challenge yet—coaching a second-division women’s football team. Over the course of the season, the squad—and coach—learn what it means to leap before they look. Expect emotional growth, team spirit, and the trademark humor we love.

Why Fans Should Be Excited

Fans and cast alike seemed to mourn the show’s season 3 conclusion like a season-end combining victory and closure. Yet Season 4 promises to deliver fresh narrative arcs and character moments while keeping the heart and warmth that made Lasso a cultural touchstone.

When Do We Get Episodes?

There remains no announced release date, yet the general consensus from several reports is that a premiere late in 2025 or early in 2026 is most likely. With production already underway and further cast talks still ongoing, details will emerge later in the year.

Final Thoughts: A Bold New Era

Ted Lasso Season 4 isn’t more football comedy—it’s a leap into new territory with a new team, a new location, and the same heart. With the transition to coaching a women’s football team, reimagined narratives, and fresh characters joining the ranks, the show is set for a gripping reinvention that will feel like home to veteran viewers and newcomers alike.

Apple TV+ isn’t rushing a half-baked reboot—it’s giving Ted Lasso a new canvas. Whether you’re pumped, skeptical, or just here for Roy Kent’s rants, there’s reason to believe this reboot could be just as delightful as the original.
