‘Ted Lasso’ Season 4 teaser reveals Richmond’s women’s football team
Do you smell a whiff of shortbread? Or hear faint snatches of folksy life advice on the wind? That can only mean one thing: Ted Lasso is almost back.
Apple TV‘s Emmy-winning comedy returns for a fourth season this August, bringing Ted (Jason Sudeikis) back to Richmond following his Season 3 departure. This time, though, he won’t be coaching the same Richmond Greyhounds he worked with before. Instead, he’s heading up a second division women’s football team. The series first hinted at bringing in a women’s team in its Season 3 finale, when Keeley (Juno Temple) presented Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham) with a proposal for one.
The first teaser for Season 4 shows the women’s team in action, from tryouts to practices to high-stakes games. It also highlights new faces, from Sex Education‘s Tanya Reynolds as an assistant coach to Tracey Ullman in an undisclosed role. Other additions to the cast include Jude Mack, Faye Marsay, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, Abbie Hern and Grant Feely.
Several old Ted Lasso favorites will also be returning for Season 4. Sudeikis, Waddingham, and Temple will be reprising their roles, as will Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, and Jeremy Swift.
On top of showcasing the women’s team, the Season 4 teaser also hints at some juicy developments ahead for the Ted Lasso ensemble. Rebecca kisses Matthijs (Matteo van der Grijn), the Dutch houseboat owner she spent a magical night with in Season 3. Elsewhere, Roy and Keeley share some charged moments — is their romance back on the table after deciding to be friends in Season 3? For matters of the heart and of football alike, we’ll have to wait until August to find out.
Ted Lasso Season 4 premieres Aug. 5 on Apple TV.
