With every bit of news we get about Ted Lasso Season 4, it becomes more and more real. And this time, we finally have more official details about the cast members who’ll be returning. Filming has officially begun, and a single still promises the return of Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, and Jeremy Swift alongside Jason Sudeikis’ titular character.
According to Deadline, Brett Goldstein and Brendan Hunt are also set to return and “believed to have three-year pacts, corroborating the speculation that Sudeikis has a new three-season arc in mind for Ted Lasso’s new chapter.”
Who Else Is Returning to Ted Lasso Season 4?
Ted’s son Henry will return to the series, but Grant Feely (young Luke Skywalker in Kenobi) is set to take over Gus Turner’s role in a recast. Again, according to Deadline, he’ll have a more recurring role this season, which can maybe become a series regular role down the line. In addition to Feely, new cast members include. Tanya Reynolds, Jude Mack, Faye Marsay, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, and Abbie Hern. Presumably, since the fourth season will follow a women’s football team instead of the AFC Richmond we’re familiar with, these cast members will likely fill those roles.
The official logline reads: Ted (Sudeikis) 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.
Now, the question on all our minds—what about Phil Dunster’s Jamie Tartt? Or Toheeb Jimoh’s Sam Obisanya? What about Cristo Fernández’s Dani Rojas? While it’s understandable that the original players may not have series regular roles, given the fact that the show will be following a new team, we’re still hopeful that we’ll at least see them in recurring roles during the show’s new arc. It’s hard to imagine the series returning without some of the gems who’ve made it so special.
