Apple TV has signaled the return of its critically lauded series, "Ted Lasso," announcing that the fourth season will premiere on August 5. New episodes are slated to roll out weekly every Wednesday through October 7, continuing the narrative of the titular American coach.
The core development is the confirmation of "Ted Lasso" Season 4's release date: August 5, 2026. This season sees Ted Lasso, portrayed by Jason Sudeikis, return to Richmond, England, to take on a new coaching role—this time, with a second division women's football team. This shift marks a significant narrative turn, diverging from his previous tenure with a men's team.
The series, lauded for its awards—including multiple Emmy wins for Outstanding Comedy Series—continues to be a cornerstone of Apple TV+'s content. Recent announcements confirm the return of many fan-favorite cast members. Among those reprising their roles are Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, and Jeremy Swift. The ensemble is also set to expand with new series regulars, including Tanya Reynolds and Faye Marsay, alongside a number of other new faces. The show's production involves Bill Lawrence's Doozer Productions and Universal TV.

A teaser trailer has also been released, offering a glimpse of the upcoming season. While light on plot details, it showcases returning characters and introduces new ones, hinting at the unfolding dynamics. The trailer also features Andrea Anders as Ted's ex-wife, Michelle, and Matteo van der Grijn as Matthijs, a character previously introduced. Tracey Ullman is slated for a guest role.
Behind the scenes, Jack Burditt has joined as an executive producer under a new overall deal with Apple TV. This follows the series' conclusion of its third season, which saw Ted depart Richmond to be with his son. The confirmation of season four comes after Apple previously indicated its official arrival, and whispers of subsequent seasons, potentially seasons five and six, continue to circulate, suggesting a potential new three-season arc.
