Season 4 of 'Ted Lasso' Is Officially in Production—and We Have a First Look

Elle2 days ago
The hit Emmy-winning series Ted Lasso has been 'exhumed,' as star Hannah Waddingham put it. The Apple TV+ juggernaut, which was once believed to end after season 3, is officially making its return. Here's everything we know about Ted Lasso's next season.
Yes! In March 2025, it was announced that Ted Lasso would return for a fourth season.
In a statement about the renewal, per Variety, Sudeikis said: 'As we all continue to live in a world where so many factors have conditioned us to 'look before we leap,' 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.'
Here's the official logline from Apple:
Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Jeremy Swift, and Brendan Hunt are all confirmed to return.
When asked about returning for a fourth season of Ted Lasso, Waddingham said, 'It feels like it was the most beautiful, beloved dog that was buried, and now we've exhumed it, and I am here for it. I was hankering and hankering and hankering and hankering to see where Rebecca had gone, where she was going to. She's my girl. She's in my bloodstream, so I'm thrilled that it's been exhumed.'
She continued, 'I can't wait to get involved with that and put my penneth in and go shopping for her looks.'
Season 4 will also have a few new additions: Tanya Reynolds (Sex Education), Jude Mack (Such Brave Girls), Faye Marsay (Adolescence), Aisling Sharkey (Jurassic World Dominion), Abbie Hern (My Lady Jane), and newcomer, Rex Hayes. Their roles have not yet been announced. Grant Feely will also join the cast and step in as Ted's son, Henry, a role previously played by Gus Turner.
Yes! On July 21, Apple TV+ announced that production was underway. Principal photography began today in Kansas City, and additional filming will take place in London.

Cam's 'All Things Light' is one of the best albums of the year. Here's why.

Cam's name isn't as instantly recognizable as the Nashville artists selling out stadiums and dumping a trove of singles on the charts. But the singer-songwriter who has worked with Harry Styles, Miley Cyrus and Jack Antonoff and written five songs for Beyoncé's Grammy Award-winning epic 'Cowboy Carter,' has delivered many an emotive song of her own during her decade-plus career. Her 2015 hit, 'Burning House,' ignited to the Top 5 of Billboard's country chart and was certified triple platinum, while a 2019 collaboration with Diplo, 'So Long,' dented the dance chart. Cam's latest album, 'All Things Light,' (out now) is efficient, profound and one of the most quietly formidable of the year. Cam, born Camaron Ochs, began writing songs for the album after she became a mother during the isolating early months of the pandemic. Her college years traveling through Nepal and Egypt and working as a psychology researcher at Stanford and the University of California, Berkeley, helped steer her toward meditation, which she relied on during that insulating period of parenting. The dozen songs on 'All Things Light' reflect her thoughtfulness and her desire to impart wisdom to her daughter, Lucy (whose name is derived from the Latin word for 'light'). She accomplishes her goal through a genre-defying amalgamation of country, Americana, pop and soul. The album's first single, 'Alchemy,' is an ideal platform for her crystalline voice and penchant for lush harmonies, while 'Slow Down' takes listeners on a 97-second stroll of strumming folk guitar and cheery whistling akin to vintage Loretta Lynn. Cam, 40, inhabits a space similar to Brandi Carlile, her appealing songs making their point in a pure, expressive voice. Here are a few of the best tracks on 'All Things Light.' More: Dave Stewart was playing Dylan songs as a teen. Now he's made an album of them 'Just for You' Cam is masterful at conveying deep feelings in few words. Another of her under-two-minutes songs says all it needs to under a blanket of glorious harmonizing that blends '60s-era girl group sensibilities with soul. 'If you want someone's shoulder, I've got two,' she offers in her honeyed voice, a simple proclamation that lands hard. 'Nevermine' Songs about loves that just weren't meant to be aren't exactly original territory. But when Cam sings, ' I feel stupid/I feel bruised/I feel out of line/You were never mine to lose' under a canopy of bowed electric guitars trembling and melancholy piano plinking, she infuses a familiar sentiment with a dash of peaceful resignation. 'We Always Do' Cam ends her album on a hopeful note. She promises faithfulness ('When you look in the mirror and see someone new/I will be here to remind you of you') and shares her vulnerability ('You let me storm off to avoid the monsoon/you know I can't sleep in the other room') with equal sincerity. Over chords from a Rhodes piano, gentle strings and a beat that sprints and slackens, Cam allows the song to trail off in a swirl of sound with a final message: 'You gotta try.'

Eddie Karanja calls 'Washington Black' a story he had to tell

Photo courtesy of Hulu NEW YORK, July 23 (UPI) -- Halo and Sandman actor Eddie Karanja says he hopes audiences feel inspired and see themselves in his epic new miniseries, Washington Black. "First of all, I want them to think Wash is awesome because he is," Eddie told UPI in a recent Zoom interview. "Even though I can't predict, I think young viewers are going to really love a lot of the characters that we meet along the way and they're going to find identity within the show," he said. "It's such an amazing story to hear being told from my character's perspective and through the eyes of an 11-year-old, enslaved boy who goes on this whirlwind journey. It was something that I knew that I had to tell." The eight-episode series premieres on Hulu Wednesday and co-stars Sterling K. Brown, Ernest Kingsley Jr., Tom Ellis, Iola Evans, Billy Boyd, Rupert Graves, Edward Bluemel and Ntare Mwine. The adaptation of Esi Edugyan's best-selling novel follows the titular, 19th-century hero, who was born a slave on a Barbados sugar plantation, but whose brilliant scientific mind enables him to go on extraordinary adventures. "It started with the book, then went to the script, and my amazing dialect and acting coach really helped me zone in on the internal conflict in Washington," Eddie said. "You really begin to feel the emotion inside before you show it outside. And, then, it was [listening to] music, as well. All those things really helped create this character that I really love." Eddie said playing chess helped him bond with Kingsley Jr., the actor who played the adult version of Wash. "There were conversations had and there were subtle things," Eddie explained. "Hanging out with each other, we really picked up similar mannerisms, so it was almost as if the same person was portraying this character at different points in his life." The project also afforded Eddie the opportunity of working with Emmy-winner Brown, who was a producer in addition to a cast member on Washington Black. "Sterling was an amazing collaborator. He really made you feel like an active part of the collaboration," Eddie said. "It was good to have him around." The actor said the period-accurate costumes and locations in Mexico, Iceland and Nova Scotia where the series was shot helped him immerse himself in this world. "It really did a lot of the work in the character circumstances," he added. "There was never a moment that I felt the set was taking me out of [the story] in any way." Showrunner Selwyn Seyfu Hinds said he and executive producer Kimberly Ann Harrison tried to create a "safety net" so the cast and crew had what they needed to make the most authentic and emotionally rewarding series possible. "They were forces throughout the show in really cultivating and honing in on this story," Eddie said. "Selwyn really took a lot of himself and his own culture and really put that into the show. Kim really honed in on those ideas, as well, and, really, the finished product speaks for itself." Hinds felt immediately drawn to the beloved novel. "I love the core of what the book is about -- the idea that the best of us can come from the worst of places, right?" he said. "If that's not emblematic of Wash's journey, I don't know what else you can say," Hinds added. "Once we got that sort of core idea of this kid who was going to go on a journey that will metaphorically and literally lead to him flying, everything else became: 'Well, what best supports that? How do we challenge that journey? How do we make it more interesting? How do we take some of the clues in the book and what sort of secret chambers are here to explore?'" Hinds thinks the tale will resonate with 2025 viewers unsettled by real-world division and unrest. "When the world's on fire, it'd be nice to find some wings and flowers," he said. "An evergreen journey for humans is to find hope and find kindness and joy, and it just feels extra-relevant in times that feel tough," Hinds added. "It's not just empty-calorie escapism. It's sort of like escapism with a thematic purpose."
