The Emmy-winning Apple TV series "Ted Lasso" will return for its fourth season on August 5, 2026, with the narrative shifting to Ted Lasso coaching a second-division women's football team in Richmond. New episodes will subsequently roll out weekly on Wednesdays.
The announcement accompanied the release of a teaser trailer, which offers a glimpse of Jason Sudeikis reprising his role as the titular American coach, now back in southwest London. While the trailer is described as montage-heavy and light on dialogue, it reportedly showcases returning cast members alongside new faces.
This development follows speculation about the show's future, particularly after Season 3 concluded with Ted returning to his home in the United States to be with his son. The premise of coaching a women's team presents Ted with what is being framed as his "biggest challenge yet."
