After a lengthy break, the Apple TV+ series Ted Lasso is officially back on the field. The Emmy-winning series will kick off its fourth season on August 5, marking the show’s first new episodes since its 2023 run wrapped.

Ted Lasso returns with Jason Sudeikis once again leading both in front of and behind the camera. This time, Ted heads back to London for an entirely new challenge: managing AFC Richmond’s second-division women’s team. According to the official synopsis, “Throughout the course of the season, Ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would.”

One brief moment in the trailer captures Ted encountering a skeptical fan who greets him with: “Welcome back, Coach. Too bad you’re coaching a bunch of girls… Ya w***er.”

Apple TV had previously shared first-look photos from Season 4 in January. The newly released teaser offers a glimpse of Ted settling back into life in southwest London, along with quick looks at the women’s squad in action and familiar faces returning to the story. Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt and Jeremy Swift are all back, joined by newcomers including Tanya Reynolds, Jude Mack, Faye Marsay and others. The preview also features returning supporting characters and teases a guest appearance from Tracey Ullman.

Season 4 will span 10 episodes, with new installments dropping weekly on Wednesdays and the finale set for October 7. The upcoming chapter follows Apple’s official renewal of the series in March 2025, putting to rest months of uncertainty after the original storyline concluded.
