Ted Lasso Season 4 Arrives on Apple TV This Summer

One of the standout series on Apple TV is making a comeback later this year: the streamer has confirmed that season 4 of Ted Lasso will debut this summer. While a specific release date hasn’t been announced yet, this news is significant for the platform, as the show has been on hiatus for several years.

The third season of Ted Lasso concluded in 2023, seemingly wrapping up the story. However, Apple revealed last year that a fourth season was in development, sharing a first-look image in July. This new season will introduce a fresh storyline, with Ted (played by Jason Sudeikis) stepping in as the coach of AFC Richmond’s new women’s soccer team.

Season 4 will bring back a mix of familiar faces and new talent. Alongside Sudeikis, fans can expect to see Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, and Jeremy Swift returning. New cast members include Tanya Reynolds, Jude Mack, Faye Marsay, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, Abbie Hern, and Grant Feely. On the production side, Jack Burditt, known for his work on popular sitcoms like 30 Rock and Modern Family, is joining as an executive producer, part of a new overall deal with Apple TV.

This announcement aligns with Apple’s strategy to broaden its streaming service, which has included a rebranding, an expansion into live sports, and the introduction of high-profile series like Pluribus from Vince Gilligan. The return of the beloved sitcom Ted Lasso fits perfectly into this plan, but it remains to be seen if the new season will resonate with audiences as strongly as the original.
