FULL STORY ======================================================================Ted Lasso season 4: key information - No official announcement yet
- Positive reports around the show heading towards being greenlit

- No trailers or other footage revealed
- A few main cast members expected to return as options picked up
- No new cast members unveiled

Ted Lasso season 4 seemed unlikely when the show wrapped up squarely in the season 3 finale, but the more we hear, the more we think we haven't seen the last of the hit comedy. It is one of the best Apple TV Plus shows after all, which is not a title given out easily. The stellar cast alongside the warmth and humor of Ted Lasso makes it the ultimate feel good watch that, unsurprisingly, has left fans wanting more.

So far, theres been three seasons on Apple TV Plus following the struggling soccer team, AFC Richmond, as theyre led by an equally muddling coach in the form of Ted Lasso (Jason Sudeikis). From the first season, it quickly became
a global sensation for the streaming platform with awards a-plenty and returning, much-loved cast members. While Ted Lasso season 3 pulled at the heartstrings in what appeared to be a very final finale of Teds time at the club, heres everything you need to know about its potential return, possible plot, cast, trailer, and more.

While theres not been an official renewal, Ted Lasso season 4 may have leaked before Apple TV Plus announces it and it comes with a filming date sooner
than expected as rumors suggest early 2025.

According to 9To5Mac , the Magic Rays of Light podcast previously revealed a potential production start date, as well as saying season 4 had been publicly listed on the Film & Television Industry Alliances website.

Warner Bros. TV boss Channing Dungey also spoke exclusively to Variety in October 2024 on the shows return: We are in conversations about season four, and they are very exciting conversations, but its still early days. If Ted Lasso is renewed, we predict we'll be seeing it on our screens in early to
mid 2026. Taking into account that season 3 began filming in March 2022 and was released a year later, if the rumors are true about filming commencing in early 2025, wed expect season 4 to come out a year after that.

As theres no official renewal of Ted Lasso season 4, theres certainly no trailer to share just yet. Season 3 premiered on March 15 with the teaser trailer dropping a month before and the official trailer a week later, so its a little while off yet.

Full spoilers follow for Ted Lasso season 3.

When it comes to Ted Lasso season 4 cast, a report from Deadline revealed
that Warner Bros. TV has picked up the options for three cast members,
despite the show not yet being greenlit. They are as follows: Hannah Waddingham as Rebecca Walton Brett Goldstein as Roy Kent Jeremy Swift as Leslie Higgins

Then theres the Ted Lasso season 4 cast we expect may return: Brendan Hunt as Coach Beard Juno Temple as Keeley Jones Kola Bokinni as Isaac McAdoo Toheeb Jimoh as Sam Obisanya James Lance as Trent Crimm Anthony Head as Ruper
Mannion Billy Harris as Colin Hughes Stephen Manas as Richard Montlaur Cristo Fernndex as Dani Rojas Moe Jeudy-Lamour as Thierry Zoreaux Moe Hashim as Moe Bumbercatch David Elsendoorn as Jan Maas Adam Colborne as Baz Primrose
Bronson Webb as Jeremy Blumenthal Kevin Garry as Paul La Fleur Charlie
Hiscock as Will Kitman

In conversation with Variety, Dungey also spoke about Sudeikis potential return: We had always been clear that we there wasnt going to be more ' Ted Lasso if Jason [Sudeikis] and team werent feeling excited about it, and I
can tell you first-hand that hes in a place where hes feeling really excited and feels good about it While Sudeikis also holds the title of the shows co-creator, it might still mean hes not returning as Ted at all, but theres certainly rumors. Oh man, I just remembered this line: its not that I refuse to talk about you going home, its that I refuse to accept that you are not coming back November 4, 2024

These rumors have been ignited further by a heartwarming, but positive, post on X (formerly Twitter) from Nick Mohammed who plays Ted Lasso s Nathan Shelley. Posting a quote, it says: "I refuse to accept that you are not
coming back," which has left eager fans feeling the very same, and hoping
it's a major hint at more to come. A little TED LASSO news: Phil Dunster, who plays Jamie Tartt, is not expected to return for Season 4. He's got conflicts with other shows. Discussing today on The Town, sign up here!... https://t.co/ckwvYCdCbJ August 26, 2024

Finally, when it comes to AFC Richmond's top player, Jamie Tartt (Phil Dunster), you may have noticed his absence from the list above. According to Puck News' Matthew Belloni, he's not expected to return due to scheduling conflicts. Clarifying: "To be clear, I mean as a series regular. Maybe he
pops in for a guest spot or two." Ted Lasso season 4 potential plot synopsis and rumors Could Ted Lasso season 4 get the gang back together? (Image

The biggest question over Ted Lasso season 4 is what would it look like without Ted, given his move back to the States? Would they bring him back?
Or, will season 4 be a spin-off, following Rebecca, Roy, and Leslie, given that their options have reportedly already been picked up in anticipation. Roy, as newly-appointed manager of AFC Richmond, could certainly be an
option.

When speaking to Variety about what a season 4 could look like, Jason
Sudeikis said: If anything, the endeavor took as long as it did because of just how dense the stories are. And so while were flattered by the curiosity of Is this the final season, the fact is that content-wise, if you just go by running time, this season has a Season 4 within itself.

Executive producer Brendan Hunt, aka Coach Beard, spoke to Consequence about the potential after season 3 given the show has followed a planned three-season arc so far: Yes. Another arc is possible after this, for sure.
We have always seen it as some kind of three-beat thing. Originally those three beats were more going to be modeled on what [the British] The Office did, you know, six eps, a special, boom, were done. Weve certainly expanded those beats, but it does not mean that the whole kit and caboodle is getting chucked." (Image credit: Apple TV Plus)

In season 3, we watched as Nate struggled to find his feet at his new job at West Ham, suddenly returning to AFC Richmond with a lower-level job by the season's end. While he was abrasive towards Ted in the seasons up to this moment, his return to the club was met with Teds decision to leave and head back to Kansas. Though Nate was showing a different side to his character
with several panic attacks over season 3 alluding to a deeper meaning, the path wasn't followed any further. For Nate, there's definitely potential for more. The AFC Richmond players have more to say (Image credit: Apple TV Plus)

AFC Richmond were keen to impress in the Premier League in season 3. But, the big plot speculation is around the possibility of an AFC Richmond Women's team. Conversations between Rebecca and Keeley definitely suggested this new path for the show. Though which storyline could be the main driving force behind Ted Lasso season 4, we'll have to wait and see. The door has been left wide open for more, with Ted or not. Ted Lasso: will there be more seasons?

It's hard to say whether the show will continue for more given Ted Lasso season 4 has not officially received the greenlight. The suggestion of
another three-beat arc by Coach Beard is a positive one though, but until we know more about season 4, there's unfortunately not much to say about it
going any further.
