- Apple has released the first teaser for Ted Lasso season 4
- It reveals a bunch of returning fan favorites and a host of new faces
- Season 4 will premiere ahead of the 2026/27 English Premier League season
Clean your boots and prepare to take to the field once more, soccer fans, because Ted Lasso season 4 finally has a release date: August 5, 2026.
The multi-award winning comedy-drama, which appeared to end after three seasons in May 2023, will be back before the 2026/27 English Premier League (EPL) season kicks off later in August. And, to whet our appetite for the hugely popular show's return, Apple has debuted the first footage from Ted Lasso's highly anticipated return.
Set to Mumford & Sons' Rubber Band Man, the Apple TV teaser reminds us that season 4 will see Ted return to AFC Richmond to coach its women's team.
He'll be joined by plenty of familiar faces as he looks to work his magic in his new role, too, including Hannah Waddingham's Rebecca Welton, Juno Temple's Keeley Jones, and Brendan Hunt's Coach Beard. Brett Goldstein's Roy Kent and Jeremy Swift's Leslie Higgins are also part of proceedings, although it's unclear how involved they'll be in the wider narrative.
As for those who've joined the cast, Tanya Reynolds (Sex Education), Jude Mack (Waiting for the Out), Faye Marsey (Andor), Rex Hayes (The Pact), Aisling Sharkey (Jurassic World: Dominion), and Abbie Hern (Peaky Blinders) will portray prominent members of the Greyhounds' female squad. However, there's still nothing to report on characters they'll be playing.
Story-wise, here's the official blurb for the critically-acclaimed Apple TV Original's next installment: "In season four, Ted returns to Richmond, taking on his biggest challenge yet: coaching a second division women’s football team. Throughout the course of the season, Ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would."
Prior to season 4's official launch date reveal, Waddingham had all but confirmed that Ted Lasso season 4 would arrive in August. Before she did, Apple had only announced that Ted Lasso 4 would come out sometime in mid-2026. As I mentioned, though, with the next EPL season due to begin in late August, it was inevitable — at least to me, anyway — that the Jason Sudeikis-fronted program would drop sometime that month.
