Ted Lasso is heading back to Richmond, as Apple TV dropped the Ted Lasso Season 4 trailer on Monday, confirming the hit comedy is returning August 5th after a three-year hiatus.
The teaser shows Jason Sudeikis as beloved coach Lasso presented with an entirely new challenge: leading Richmond's second-tier women's football team.
Ted returns to the fictional English club after Season 3's 2023 finale saw him depart for Kansas City to reunite with his son Henry. The season-ender foreshadowed women's football storyline, when publicist Keeley Jones proposed an AFC Richmond women's team to owner Rebecca Welton.
The Ted Lasso Season 4 trailer highlights themes of cultural resistance, opening with a fan approaching Lasso in an alley and saying, "Welcome back, Coach. Too bad you're coaching a bunch of girls, you wanker." The scene indicates gender barriers in English soccer will subsequently act as the season's central conflict.
Emmy winners Hannah Waddingham as Rebecca, Brett Goldstein as assistant coach Roy Kent, and Juno Temple as Keeley return to the core cast. Brendan Hunt reprises his role as Coach Beard, while Jeremy Swift returns as director of football operations Leslie Higgins.
Ted Lasso won 20 Emmy Awards across its first three seasons, including back-to-back Outstanding Comedy Series wins. Season 1 became the most Emmy-nominated comedy series in history, picking up 61 total nominations across all three seasons.
