Jason Sudeikis’s mustache is returning.
“Ted Lasso”, the drama about a fiercely optimistic American football coach in London, will return for a fourth season, Apple TV+ announced on Friday.
The streamer did not say when the new episodes would be available or where they are in the production process. In a statement, Sudeikis, the program star and an executive producer, hinted that the new episodes would be on risk.
“In the fourth season, the people of AFC Richmond learn to jump before looking, discovering that wherever they terrify, it is exactly where they should be.”
Ted Lasso was first introduced by Sudeikis in 2013 to promote NBC Sports coverage of Premier League England. In a short film, Lasso was the coach of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club in London. It was clear quickly that I knew little, in any case, about football.
“They are going to play hard for the four rooms,” Lasso said about the players at a drill press conference. “Do we have a goal this season? Absolutely. We are going to win many games and we will reach the playoffs. “
The idea arose to write a program around the character, but did not come to fruition until Bill Lawrence (“scrubs”, “Cougar Town”) helped Apple TV+pick it up. “Ted Lasso” debuted in August 2020, in the middle of the pandemic blockade. This version of Lasso was the new coach of a fictional football team in London called AFC Richmond. Lasso’s cheerful disposition allowed him to even win the most surpassed football fans, not to mention the spectators tired of remaining inside.
“He is the version of me that I would like to be,” Sudeikis told the AP before his debut. “It has ups and downs like anyone else. But it is eternally optimistic, hopeful and sincere. “
“Ted Lasso” has won seven Emmy Awards during stellar schedule, including outstanding comedy series for his first two seasons. He made stars with his support cast, including Brett Goldstein, Hannah Waddingham and Juno Temple.
