LOS ANGELES — For those of you who kept tapping your “Believe” sign, your prayers have been answered. Apple TV+ announced last week that “Ted Lasso,” the hit comedy starring Jason Sudeikis, would officially return for a fourth season.
After the third season concluded in 2023, fans were left to wonder if the U.K.-set series had reached its conclusion. Sudeikis’ namesake character returned to the States to be closer to his son in the season finale, and there was no immediate announcement of a renewal, though the dual Hollywood strikes in 2023 likely played a factor. However, in recent months it increasingly appeared that “Ted Lasso” would return after Warner Bros. Television, the studio that produces the series, secured options for some of the British actors who star in the series, including Hannah Waddingham, Brett Goldstein and Jeremy Swift.
There’s no word on when the new season will be released. Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+, said they were “thrilled to be continuing our collaboration with Jason and the brilliant creative minds behind this show.” Sudeikis is an executive producer on the Emmy-winning series, along with Brendan Hunt, Joe Kelly, Jane Becker, Jamie Lee and Bill Wrubel. Goldstein serves as writer and executive producer alongside Leanne Bowen.
