Ted Lasso season 4: Everything you need to know about Apple TV+ show
After much speculation about whether it would be returning, Ted Lasso is officially filming its fourth season. The show, which seemed to wrap up at the end of season 3, is now back for more, and many of the show's main cast members are set to return for this new season. While it's been a couple of years since we've heard from Ted and the gang, many people are naturally wondering what might be different about this new season and when we'll get a chance to see it. Here's everything you need to know about the new season based on what's out there now. Is there definitely a new season of Ted Lasso? Although it was only a rumor for a long time, we now know for sure that Ted Lasso will be back for a fourth season. On July 21, Apple TV+ announced that production on the show had begun. The production also shared our first look at season 4, an image of Jeremy Swift (Leslie Higgins), Hannah Waddingham (Rebecca Welton), Juno Temple (Keeley Jones), and Jason Sudeikis's Ted Lasso sitting at what looks like an American diner. Recommended Videos In March, Apple announced that the show would return after months of speculation. 'As we all continue to live in a world where so many factors have conditioned us to 'look before we leap,'' Sudeikis said in a press release at the time. '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.' What seems clear, though, is that Sudeikis and the rest of the creative team behind the show were unsure whether the show would be back after season 3. Part of the reason it took so long to get a season 4 is that this show is a little bit of a soft reboot. It's technically season 4, but the show now has a new premise, and not all of the cast from the first three seasons will be back. Who is in the cast for Ted Lasso season 4? In addition to the four cast members who appear in the image, we know that Brett Goldstein (Roy Kent) and Brendan Hunt (Coach Beard) will return for the new season. Apple also announced that Tanya Reynolds, Jude Mack, Faye Marsey, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, and Abbie Hern will all be joining the show in roles that have yet to be disclosed. Grant Feely is also replacing Gus Turner as Ted's son. Where will the new season take place? Through its first three seasons, Ted Lasso took place entirely in the U.K., but it seems the show is shifting gears, at least to some extent, for season 4. Filming commenced in Kansas City, Missouri, which is Sudeikis's hometown and also happens to be Ted's. The production did clarify, though, that some additional photography would take place in London, so it seems the show is not abandoning its U.K. setting completely. As you might remember, Ted returned home to coach his son's soccer team at the end of season 3, and it seems season 4 will pick up with Ted back in Kansas City. What will the plot of season 4 be? According to a synopsis for the new season, Ted will be returning to the United Kingdom yet again, and this time, he'll be coaching a women's soccer team. 'Ted returns to Richmond, taking on his biggest challenge yet: coaching a second division women's football team,' the show's synopsis explains. 'Throughout the course of the season, Ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would.' It would seem that this is the team that Keeley proposed to Rebecca at the end of the show's third season. When is the release date for Ted Lasso season 4? We don't yet know when Ted Lasso will debut, but given that the show has just started filming, it likely won't be on the air until 2026 at the earliest. That would be three years after the last season, which is a long time, but not unprecedented in the era of streaming television. Still, this is a slightly unusual situation because of the uncertainty after season 3. In the end, the show's popularity was too great to ignore. Is there a trailer for Ted Lasso season 4 yet? Given that production on the season just started, we don't yet have a trailer for the new season. It will likely be several months before we get anything besides images from the set, because Apple won't want to produce a trailer until there's plenty of footage to choose from. In place of a trailer, Apple released a brief clip of Ted, Keely, Rebecca, and Higgins eating at a booth to announce the start of production on season 4.

Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, and more are all smiles in 'Ted Lasso' season 4 first look
Believe! Biscuits with the boss look a tad different in the first look at season 4 of Ted Lasso. Apple TV+ released the first look at Jason Sudeikis, Jeremy Swift, Hannah Waddingham, and Juno Temple in the upcoming fourth season of the Emmy-winning series as production officially begins Monday in Kansas City, with additional filming set to take place in London. Swift (as Leslie Higgins), Waddingham (Rebecca Welton), Temple (Keeley Jones), and Sudeikis (Ted Lasso) are gathered around a booth in a sun-drenched diner in the photo. Brett Goldstein, also a writer and executive producer on the dramedy, and Brendan Hunt, series co-creator, are also set to reprise their roles as Roy Kent and Coach Beard, respectively. The new season will follow Ted as he returns to Richmond to tackle 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," per the the crew are series newcomers Tanya Reynolds, Jude Mack, Faye Marsay, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, Abbie Hern, and Grant Feely, the latter of whom will be stepping in as Ted's son, Henry. Though initially conceived as a three-season series by Sudeikis and his co-creators, the show received a surprise season 4 renewal back in March. The Apple TV+ juggernaut debuted 2020 and introduced Sudeikis' fish-out-of-water American football coach who is hired to manage a British soccer team. Goldstein memorably compared the return to the resurrection of a dead cat while speaking to NPR in April. "I have a friend that I went to university with, and I think about this a lot," Goldstein recalled. "He had a cat that died. He loved his cat. And the cat was run over, and they buried the cat. He was a child. They buried the cat in the garden, and he lay in bed so sad, so upset and crying, and he prayed and he wished, 'I wish the cat would come back.'" "And then the cat did come back, and it turned out the cat they buried wasn't their cat," he continued. "I think about that all the time. I'm like, no wonder this guy is f---ed in the head, because he thinks death isn't real, so of course he's insane. He's such a weird guy 'cause he thinks he can bring things back from the dead." Resurrecting the show felt like that cat's resurrection, he said. "I guess I'm saying I feel like that kid. Like, we buried it. We all cried, we had a funeral. Are you saying we can bring anything back?' It's too much power.' Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly Solve the daily Crossword

The White Lotus creator Mike White sparks casting rumors with casual catch-up
White Lotus creator Mike White has dropped a huge hint that Laura Dern could be returning to the hit series after they were spotted drinking smoothies in Los Angeles on Thursday. The filmmaker, 55, chatted with the actress, 58, who had a voice cameo in the second season, at Sun Life Organic in Brentwood. For the occasion, Mike wore a casual outfit of shorts and a navy top, while Laura looked stylish in jeans and a black jacket. The pair appeared in great spirits as they were seen laughing during their catch-up, sparking speculation that the actress could be set for a role in season four. While the actress has not physically appeared in White Lotus, her voice was heard in season two as Abby, the estranged wife of Michael Imperioli's character, Dominic Di Grasso. Mike and Laura have worked together before, on their two-season HBO dramedy, Enlightened. The actress starred as Amy Jellicoe, a corporate executive who takes a demotion after a humiliating nervous breakdown. Earlier this year, Mike hinted at the setting for the show's highly anticipated fourth season. The first three seasons of the HBO series were all filmed at luxury Four Seasons resorts close to a beach, which in the show serve as White Lotus hotel chains. But Mike teased that the location for season four might move away from the water. Speaking to Deadline, he said: 'For the fourth season, I want to get a little bit out of the crashing waves of rocks vernacular but there's always more room for more murders at the White Lotus hotels.' The first season unfolded in Hawaii, followed by Italy for the second, and the recently aired third season was set in Thailand. The show was renewed for a fourth season earlier this year. White didn't offer any specifics, but his hint suggests a departure from the expected hotel locations. Cast members previously ruled out cold locations, stating White prefers a warm climate. The Mail on Sunday has been told that producers are looking at Four Seasons hotels in Africa and Australia – with Marrakech in Morocco as the front-runner. A source at broadcaster HBO in the US who was in a meeting with White recently said: 'Mike wants to do a series of White Lotus on every continent.' 'He's done Hawaii and Italy and now Thailand. He hates snow, so the likelihood is Africa or Australia. No one thinks it will be Antarctica.' 'Season four has already been commissioned and Africa is the favorite. It has everything White Lotus fans expect. Heat, exotic locations and dramatic backdrops.' 'Marrakech offers heat and intrigue. Nothing has been decided, but Africa is the way Mike is leaning.' The White Lotus production crew signed a reported £25 million deal in 2021 to film exclusively in Four Seasons resorts. The Mail On Sunday has been told the Four Seasons in Marrakech is one of the locations being 'seriously' looked at. The five-star resort which occupies 40 acres in the heart of the city's medina – its ancient market – is 'perfect', according to one source. The source said: 'It has Moorish gardens, the souk, the Yves Saint Laurent gardens nearby and spas and a kasbah with views of the Atlas Mountains. What's not to love?' While Morocco may be top of the list, The Mail On Sunday understands White is also looking at $1,340-a-night glamping at the Four Seasons in the Serengeti national park in Tanzania. The HBO source said: 'Mike loves the idea of going to Africa. He was talking about Egypt and a safari. There are several possible locations under consideration.' Some fans have suggested the show could be filmed in Mexico, but the HBO source said: 'Mike did Hawaii. I'd be surprised if he goes back to the Americas.' There have also been rumors that Norway could be a contender, but the source said: 'Don't think that's true. Mike hates the cold.'
