Huge 'Ted Lasso' season 4 update — 'summer' release window, first-look images and new characters

L-R: Jason Sudeikis and Tanya Reynolds in front of the AFC Richmond stands in a first-look still for "Ted Lasso" season 4.

Good news, Greyhounds: Apple has confirmed that "Ted Lasso" will be returning to Apple TV for its fourth outing this year. Today, we've learned that we'll be reunited with the staff and players at AFC Richmond sometime in "summer 2026" (via Deadline).

Summer 2026 might not be the most precise "Ted Lasso" season 4 release window, but it's at the very least good to know the series' long-awaited return is on the horizon.

If a release update isn't enough to get you hyped, this huge update's got more "Ted Lasso" info to offer. Apple has also treated us to a handful of first-look images from the new installment, plus a short synopsis for the forthcoming season.

It reads: "In season four, Ted returns to Richmond, taking on his biggest challenge yet: coaching a second division women's football team. Throughout the course of the season, Ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would."

The first of those images shows Sudeikis' title character and series newcomer Tanya Reynolds ("Sex Education") pitchside, and seemingly confirms she'll be working alongside Ted as an assistant coach. You can see the rest of them below:

"Ted Lasso" season 4 will see Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, and Jeremy Swift all reprising their respective roles at AFC Richmond, plus the return of Annette Badland's hilarious pub landlord, Mae Green.

In addition to Tanya Reynolds, we already knew that the latest season would also see Jude Mack, Faye Marsay, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, Abbie Hern, and Grant Feely joining the gang. Most of the newcomers' roles remain undisclosed, though Grant Feely ("Obi-Wan Kenobi") has also joined the cast as Ted's son, Henry, replacing Gus Turner.

Our last update came when "Ted Lasso" season 4 went into production, but with a projected release window in place, I'd wager more info about the new season should arrive soon enough. In the meantime, now might be a great time to plan a rewatch. You might not "believe" me, but summer will roll around before long.

All three seasons of "Ted Lasso" are available to stream on Apple TV now.
