Score one for the fans. Deadline reports that Warner Bros. Television. has selected options for three Ted Lasso Cast members – Hannah Waddingham (Rebecca Walton), Brett Goldstein (Roy Kent) and Jeremy Swift (Leslie Higgins) – signaling it's in for a fourth season of the beloved Apple TV+ football comedy.

Deadline reports that next up will be securing new deals for co-creators/executive producers Jason Sudeikis (Ted Lasso) and Brendan Hunt (Coach Beard) as well as Juno Temple (Keeley Jones). Unfortunately for Jamie Tartt fans, REPORTS say that actor Phil Dunster is now starring in two shows, Prime Video's Devil's Hour and Apple surface, making a full-time return impossible.

When the third season ended to mixed reviews in May 2023, executives from Apple and Warner Bros. went on record as saying they would like to continue the show, but left that decision up to Sudeikis. Sudeikis clearly gave his blessing to get the ball rolling, but it remains to be seen whether Ted will be the focus of the new season or serve in a short-handed capacity. On the Hollywood Industry Podcast townhost Matthew Belloni said he believes the latter. “I think they will transfer this to a women's team,” he postulated. “And there's going to be a new coach and Sudekis is going to come in for a few episodes and help them out or show up in a surprise way.”

That's great news for fans — and great news for Apple. “This is their number one show by a mile,” says Belloni, noting that despite ending over a year ago, Ted Lasso remains in their top ten shows.
