Warner Bros. has renewed contracts for several key cast members of *Ted Lasso*, igniting speculation about a possible fourth season. According to Deadline, the studio has secured deals with Hannah Waddingham (Rebecca Walton), Brett Goldstein (Roy Kent), and Jeremy Swift (Leslie Higgins), all of whom are represented by the U.K. actors guild Equity.
Ongoing negotiations with SAG-AFTRA actors Jason Sudeikis (Ted Lasso), Brendan Hunt (Coach Beard), and Juno Temple (Keeley Jones) have further raised hopes that the beloved Apple TV+ series could continue.
The show’s third season, which ended in May 2023, saw Ted Lasso’s departure from AFC Richmond, leaving the future of the club and the series uncertain. However, many cast and crew members have expressed a willingness to continue if a fourth season is confirmed.
Series co-creator Bill Lawrence emphasized that the decision ultimately rests with Sudeikis, who not only stars as Ted Lasso but also serves as the head writer. “Whatever Jason feels like doing and whatever his decision is, we’re all down with it,” Lawrence stated, noting that a fourth season would require significant changes in Sudeikis’ life, including relocating with his young children to a foreign country.
