It’s time to break out the biscuits as Hannah Waddingham prepares to reprise her Ted Lasso role for Season 4.
The 2x Golden Globe nominee recently confirmed the long-gestating continuation of the Apple TV+ series will “start shooting in July,” for which she has signed on to reprise her portrayal of AFC Richmond owner Rebecca Welton.
“We thought we’d mourned the loss, and now it’s rising from the dead!” she said on Capital FM after Season 3 ended in 2023, presumed at the time to be the series finale.

“Our writers are literally Jedi Knights. They’re just incredible,” added Waddingham. “And we’ve got like a full room of real feminist men. So we’ve got all the fabulous women there, and the men that are in there, and I think you really see it in the scripts … it’s just so beautifully drawn.
Apple renewed the series for Season 4 last year, after co-creators Jason Sudeikis, Bill Lawrence, Brendan Hunt and Joe Kelly planned three seasons for the series.
