Apple has officially announced that its comedy series 'Ted Lasso,' is returning to the football pitch for a fourth season. The season will reunite the team that made the series popular with Jason Sudeikis reprising his role as the celebrated coach Ted Lasso.

"As we all continue to live in a world where so many factors have conditioned us to 'look before we leap,'" said star and executive producer Sudeikis, "in season four, the folks at AFC Richmond learn to LEAP BEFORE THEY LOOK, discovering that wherever they land, it's exactly where they're meant to be."

"'Ted Lasso' has been nothing short of a juggernaut, inspiring a passionate fanbase all over the world, and delivering endless joy and laughter, all while spreading kindness, compassion and unwavering belief," said Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+. "Everyone at Apple is thrilled to be continuing our collaboration with Jason and the brilliant creative minds behind this show."




"Ted Lasso" season four adds Emmy Award winner Jack Burditt ("Nobody Wants This," "Modern Family," "30 Rock") as executive producer under a new overall deal with Apple TV+. Sudeikis stars and executive produces alongside Brendan Hunt, Joe Kelly, Jane Becker, Jamie Lee and Bill Wrubel. Brett Goldstein serves as writer and executive producer alongside Leanne Bowen. Sarah Walker and Phoebe Walsh will serve as writers and producers for season four, and Sasha Garron co-produces. Julia Lindon will write for season four, and Dylan Marron will serve as story editor. Bill Lawrence executive produces via his Doozer Productions, in association with Warner Bros. Television and Universal Television, a division of NBCUniversal Content. Doozer's Jeff Ingold and Liza Katzer also serve as executive producers. The series was developed by Sudeikis, Lawrence, Kelly and Hunt, and is based on the preexisting format and characters from NBC Sports.
