No one can forget the chokehold Ted Lasso had on us during the throes of COVID lockdowns.
Debuting in 2020, Jason Sudeikis, his moustache and his shortbread biscuits charmed audiences around the world, and soon AFC Richmond had become everyone’s favourite English Premier League soccer team.
The series was widely praised by critics for its performances (Jason, Hannah Waddingham, and Brett Goldstein all won Emmys, and both Phil Dunster and Juno Temple were nominated), as well as for its humour, writing, themes, and heartwarming tone.
Which is why the Season 3 finale was so bittersweet; it was supposed to mark the end of the series.
However, in March 2025, Apple confirmed Ted Lasso was getting a Season 4!
Is there going to be a Season 4 of Ted Lasso?
Yes, Ted Lasso is returning for a fourth season!
The new season will reunite the team, with Jason Sudeikis reprising his award-winning role as Coach Ted Lasso.
“As we all continue to live in a world where so many factors have conditioned us to ‘look before we leap,’” the actor said in a statement released in March 2025.
“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.”
Who’s coming back for Season 4?
As mentioned above, Jason will return; he plays the titular character, duh!
It’s also been confirmed that Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, and Jeremy Swift will all reprise their respective roles in the fourth season.
Plus, there will be some new faces; Tanya Reynolds, Jude Mack, Faye Marsay, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, Abbie Hern, and Grant Feely have all officially joined the cast.
Why is Jamie Tartt not in Season 4?
There’s been no word on whether Phil Dunster – who portrayed the iconic Jamie Tartt in Seasons 1 to 3 – will be in Season 4.
At this stage, it’s unlikely Phil will return due to scheduling conflicts; the actor is currently committed to two other series, The Devil’s Hour and Surface.
What’s Ted Lasso Season 4 about?
The official logline for the upcoming season reads:
“Ted returns to Richmond, taking on his biggest challenge yet: coaching a second division women’s football team. Throughout the course of the season, Ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would.”
Where can I watch Ted Lasso in Australia?
Currently, you can watch the first three seasons on Apple TV+.
Season 4 will make its debut on Wednesday, 5 August 2026, with one episode, followed by new episodes every Wednesday through 7 October.
