- Quick Answer: Ted Lasso Season 4 premieres on Apple TV+ in summer 2026, following Ted’s return to England to manage a professional women’s soccer team.
After nearly three years, the fan-favorite football coach is set to return to AFC Richmond in Ted Lasso Season 4. Apple TV has finally unveiled its summer release schedule, along with new stills, plot details, and what fans can expect.
Just when it seemed Ted Lasso would end with Season 3, the series was renewed after a two-year hiatus. Now, with the new season already in production, viewers will once again see Jason Sudeikis, who also serves as an executive producer, alongside Emmy winner Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, and other familiar faces, returning for another unforgettable sports adventure.
When Will Ted Lasso Season 4 be Released?
Apple TV has officially announced that Ted Lasso Season 4 will premiere globally this summer. While an exact release date hasn’t been revealed yet, we’ve made a calculated guess on when it might hit the small screen.
The show is still in production. Filming started in July 2025 in Kansas City, and more shoots are planned in London, continuing into early 2026.
Since the series still needs to undergo post-production, including editing, music scoring, and sports scene integration, it typically takes three to four months to complete.
That said, it’s highly likely that Ted Lasso Season 4 will be released between June and July 2026, which is the most realistic target window.
What is Ted Lasso Season 4 About?
Ted Lasso Season 3 ended with Ted (Jason Sudeikis) returning to the US to be with his son, Henry (Gus Turner), after another successful season with AFC Richmond.
The finale featured a heartfelt “goodbye tour,” where Ted reconciles his role, brings the team together, and leaves behind a lasting legacy.
But this is not the end of Ted or the series. He will return in Ted Lasso Season 4 to face a new challenge. Instead of managing AFC Richmond’s men’s Premier League team as before, Ted will now be 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,” the official synopsis reads.
This means that as Ted returns to England, he will take on new responsibilities, navigate fresh underdog stories, face new challenges, and work with a whole set of new personalities.
Who Will Return in Ted Lasso Season 4?
Ted Lasso Season 4 will feature both new and returning faces, led by Jason Sudeikis reprising his role as Ted Lasso.
Returning cast members include Hannah Waddingham as Rebecca Welton, Brett Goldstein as Roy Kent, Brendan Hunt as Coach Beard, Jeremy Swift as Leslie Higgins, and Grant Feely as Ted’s son.
New additions to the cast are Tanya Reynolds as Ted’s new assistant coach, along with Jude Mack, Faye Marsay, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, and Abbie Hern, who will portray members of the women’s team and other supporting characters.
However, Phil Dunster, who plays Jamie Tartt, is reportedly not returning as a regular due to scheduling conflicts, while Juno Temple is expected to return as Keely Jones after completing scheduling negotiations.
