It was an unanswered question for several months: will the Ted Lasso series return for a fourth season exclusively on Apple TV+? According to the latest information from the media Deadline, Apple and Warner Bros Television have agreed to a fourth season. If this has not yet been made official, the American media mentions several pieces of information which no longer leave any doubt about the arrival of new episodes.

Updated 03/10/24: a great podcast host by the name of Sigmund Judge has just confirmed the imminent officialization of season 4 of Ted Lasso. For the moment, Apple has still not made it official.

Ted Lasso season 4 is coming soon

Since the start of the year, rumors surrounding a fourth season of the Apple original series “Ted Lasso” have been circulating on the internet. One of the members of the series’ production previously said in an interview that a fourth season was only possible if Jason Sudeikis (the actor who plays Ted Lasso) agreed to film new episodes. Obviously, the discussions were conclusive, because Jason Sudeikis, but also Hannah Waddingham (Rebecca Walton), Brett Goldstein (Roy Kent) and Jeremy Swift (Leslie Higgins) will all be present in season 4 of Ted Lasso.

The report indicates that Warner Bros. Television has reportedly approached almost every cast member present in the final season. The studio’s objective behind this approach is to sign new contracts, because the last one has expired, Warner Bros Television clearly did not expect a fourth season. This phase could take time, because signing a new contract to shoot new episodes necessarily means financial negotiations. The majority of leading actors will probably take advantage of the excellent audiences of the third season as well as the enthusiasm surrounding Ted Lasso to negotiate an increase in remuneration per episode.

Ted Lasso will be back for season 4! (updated)

For the moment, Warner Bros Television and Apple have not yet officially announced the continuation of the Ted Lasso series, we are only at the rumor stage, however, the information held by Deadline seems to indicate that everything is in the process of come to a close, thanks in part to Jason Sudeikis who agreed to participate in a fourth season. According to the reportas soon as the contracts are all signed with the main players and the budget and planning are approved by Apple, production of season 4 could begin as early as the first quarter of 2025.

For Apple, the production of a fourth season of Ted Lasso represents a strategic priority. The series not only broke records by winning 13 Emmy Awards in its first three seasons, but it also had Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, and Brett Goldstein receive individual awards. Ted Lasso was also instrumental in raising the profile of Apple TV+, which helped boost the service’s popularity.

Season 3, which began broadcasting in May 2023, ended on a scene that suggested that it was the definitive end of the Ted Lasso series. In the last minutes of the last episode, we could see Coach Lasso on a football field in Kansas training his son. Ted Lasso had a happy and proud face to see his son learning this sport that he loves so much.

Will Ted Lasso leave his family again in Season 4 to join Richmond and coach AFC Richmond again? Will he continue his adventures in the United States, far from the United Kingdom where the whole story has taken place so far? For the moment, it is impossible to know what is behind Jason Sudeikis’s mind, he will in any case continue to be the co-creator and executive producer of future episodes.
