Hannah Waddingham Compares 'Ted Lasso' Season 4 to a ‘Beloved Dog That Was Buried'
While fans of the hit show Ted Lasso still have a while before the show's return for Season 4, the comments from the cast alone are reason for excitement. That's at least partially because the show's stars always seem overjoyed to discuss the upcoming season and the fact that Ted Lasso hasn't bid its fans farewell just yet. While plenty of familiar faces are set to return for the fourth season of the beloved Apple TV+ series, there'll also be several new additions in the mix. Of those names returning, AFC Richmond owner Hannah Waddingham, aka Rebecca Welton, is more than willing to express her excitement about what lies ahead in Season 4. During an interview with Variety at the Smurfs premiere in Los Angeles, Waddingham spoke about the return of Ted Lasso and offered one of the most unique analogies imaginable. "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," Waddingham said. "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." It's an incredible analogy to come up with on the spot, but it's also a bit spot on. The future of Ted Lasso seemed uncertain after Season 3, but with the announcement of its return, Season 4 promises to be beautiful and beloved. Along with Waddingham, we know Ted Lasso himself, Jason Sudeikis, will be back, along with fellow assistant coaches Brett Goldstein and Brendan Hunt. Many others have hinted at their potential return, but have kept details under wraps while avoiding giving too much away about Season Waddingham Compares 'Ted Lasso' Season 4 to a 'Beloved Dog That Was Buried' first appeared on Men's Journal on Jul 14, 2025 Solve the daily Crossword

‘Ted Lasso' Season 4 Adds 6 New Cast Members
Popular Apple TV+ series Ted Lasso is one step closer to its official return. While a significant shift in the storyline is slated for Season 4, there'll be some familiar faces returning, and others that remain up in the air. However, one thing we do know is that filming is now underway. As Deadline first reported, Jason Sudeikis, who plays Lasso, will be rejoined by five familiar faces for Season 4. That list includes AFC Richmond owner Rebecca Welton (Hannah Waddingham), player-turned-coach Roy Kent (Brett Goldstein), and assistant coaches—Coach Beard (Brendan Hunt), Keeley Jones (Juno Temple), and Leslie Higgins (Jeremy Swift). While the status of other fan favorites remains uncertain, six new additions to the Ted Lasso cast have been revealed. According to Deadline, the six new cast members will all be series regulars, featuring Tanya Reynolds (Sex Education), Jude Mack (Back In Action), Faye Marsay (Adolescence), Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey (Jurassic World: Dominion) and Abbie Hern (My Lady Jane). The most significant piece of news comes in the form of one recasting—Lasso's son in the show, Henry. The role will be played by Grant Feely, who portrayed a young Luke Skywalker in the Lucasfilm/Disney+ series Obi-Wan Kenobi. According to the report, part of the reason behind the Ted Lasso recasting of the role played by Gus Turner over the first three seasons is due to Henry becoming a "skilled soccer player himself." Regarding the beloved former cast from the first three seasons, there have reportedly already been talks with Phil Dunster (Jamie Tartt) and Cristo Fernandez (Danny Rojas) to return in guest roles.'Ted Lasso' Season 4 Adds 6 New Cast Members first appeared on Men's Journal on Jul 21, 2025 Solve the daily Crossword

‘Ted Lasso' Season 4 Filming Underway Without This Fan-Favorite Star
"Ted Lasso" Season 3 Ted Lasso Season 4 is officially in production, marking the start of a new chapter for the 13-time Emmy-winning comedy. While many O.G.s are set to return, there are still questions surrounding some of the show's other fan-favorite stars, including Phil Dunster (aka the one and only Jamie Tartt). Back in March, Apple TV+ confirmed that Ted Lasso will return for a fourth season. Jason Sudeikis, who co-created the show with Brendan Hunt, Joe Kelly, and Bill Lawrence, will reprise his role and continue to serve as an executive producer for the upcoming installment. On Monday, July 21, Apple TV+ revealed that the show had begun filming in Kansas City, MO, with additional filming set to take place in London. The streamer also shared the first behind-the-scenes clip from Season 4 on social media. The video, with the caption "We're not in Richmond anymore," shows Ted, Keeley, Rebecca and Leslie sitting together in a booth at a restaurant. After the scene begins, the screen fades to black, revealing that Season 4 is officially in production, as the sounds of the characters enjoying their food play in the background. The clip's filming location in Kansas City, rather than across the pond, suggests that Ted's closest pals have traveled to the States, perhaps to convince him to coach Richmond's women's team. After all, Season 3 ended with Ted returning to his Midwestern hometown and Keeley presenting Rebecca with the idea of launching a women's club in Richmond. Apple TV+ and Sudeikis confirmed that Ted will be coaching a women's club in Season 4. 'Ted returns to Richmond, taking on his biggest challenge yet: coaching a second division women's football team," the official logline reads. "Throughout the course of the season, Ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would.' In the first-look clip for season four, we only see four cast members, but what about the rest? Here's the latest on which stars are returning so far. Which Ted Lasso Cast Members Are Confirmed to Return In Season 4? First look at "Ted Lasso" Season 4. In addition to Sudeikis, it has now been confirmed that original cast members Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, and Jeremy Swift will also reprise their roles for Season 4. They'll be joined by several new cast members in Season 4, including Tanya Reynolds, Jude Mack, Faye Marsay, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, Abbie Hern, and Grant Feely. While character details haven't been revealed, Feely will take over the role of Henry Lasso, Ted's son, according to Variety. Which Ted Lasso Cast Members Haven't Been Confirmed for Season 4? "Ted Lasso" Season 3 While some fan favorites have been confirmed, the fate of other beloved characters is still up in the air — including Dunster, who portrayed AFC Richmond footballer Jamie Tartt. Last August, Deadline and Puck News reported that Dunster had not yet been picked up for the series due to scheduling conflicts. The British actor currently stars in two series, Prime Video's The Devil's Hour and Apple's Surface Additionally, there's been no word on the involvement of the following Season 3 cast members in Season 4: There's always a chance that, even if they're not brought on as series regulars, they could still appear in a recurring or guest role. Nick Mohammed, who portrays Nate Shelley, previously expressed interest in returning to the show before the renewal was finalized. 'Yeah, of course. I mean, it was such a gift of a show, we all feel so grateful for being a part of it. I'd love to do some more at some point, but then, equally, it came to a satisfying conclusion in terms of stories for a lot of them, a lot of the characters,' he told Radio Times. Apple TV+ has yet to announce a release date for Season 4, though the next season isn't expected to premiere until 2026 or 2027. Stay tuned for more details.
