It's Really Happening! Behind the Scenes Buzz and How Ted Lasso Season 4 Finally Got the Green Light
For ages there have been whispers and hopes about more Ted Lasso after season 3's finale which seemed like it could have been the end. But now it's real. Sudeikis confirmed the awesome news during an interview on the New Heights podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce. When they asked him straight up about season 4 Sudeikis dropped the bomb. "We’re writing season 4 now. That’s the official word" he said. Can you believe it?
This isn't just some casual mention either. Sudeikis's confirmation is a huge deal. For months there were reports that Warner Bros. TV one of the companies making Ted Lasso was exploring a fourth season. They even reached out to actors to check if they were available for filming. Cast members like Hannah Waddingham Brett Goldstein and Jeremy Swift were all contacted. Even Nick Mohammed hinted at "rumblings" of season 4. But no one wanted to say anything for sure until Jason Sudeikis gave the final word because well it's his show!
Ted Lasso Coaching a Women's Team? What We Know About Season 4's Exciting New Direction
Okay so season 4 is happening but what's it going to be about? Sudeikis gave us a major hint. When the Kelce brothers asked what Ted would be coaching he revealed "Ted’s coaching a women’s team so there that's it." Whoa! A women's team? That is a pretty big and exciting shift for the show. Could this be AFC Richmond Women? A whole new team in the US? We don't know the specifics yet but it sounds like Ted is going to be facing new challenges and inspiring a whole new group of players.
When the Kelces pressed for more details like if Ted is coming back to America Sudeikis playfully dodged the question. He just laughed and said "Yeah that’s too many questions" and "I don’t know." So some things are still under wraps which is understandable. It's still early days for season 4 and they are just in the writing phase. But the women's team focus is a definite and thrilling detail to get us hyped.
From 'Bittersweet Bow' to 'New Chapter': Fan Theories and What to Expect From Ted Lasso Season 4
Season 3's finale felt like a real ending didn't it? It wrapped up so many storylines and gave almost everyone a happy-ish sendoff. Some fans thought that was it for Ted Lasso. But the show has always been about surprising us and defying expectations. Maybe that finale was just one possible ending and season 4 will explore a whole new chapter in Ted's journey.
Will it be a totally new story with new characters and just Ted as the link? Will some of our Richmond favorites pop up again? Will Ted be in the US or will he somehow end up back in England? The possibilities are wide open and that is part of the fun. One thing is for sure though with Sudeikis back at the helm and a women's team in the mix season 4 is guaranteed to be another heartwarming and hilarious ride.
