Ted Lasso‘s fourth season is almost over, and as we gear up for the Apple TV comedy’s latest finale, we can’t help but wonder if Season 5 is on the horizon.
While it has been three years since viewers last saw these characters, there seems to be hope for the show’s future beyond Season 4, which kicked off in August 2026. As we previously reported, star Jason Sudeikis, who plays the titular coach, hinted at another three-season arc for this new phase of the series, which has seen A.F.C. Richmond put together a women’s team.
Below, we’re breaking down everything we know aboutTed Lasso’s future so far and whether or not it could return for Season 5.

What wouldTed Lasso Season 5 be about?
Ted Lasso‘s fourth season tracks the coach’s return to England as he helps usher in a new phase at A.F.C. Richmond with the women’s team. We’d anticipate Season 5 carrying on that phase of the story as Ted and company foster the talents of a new team. While it’s too early to know for certain, we’re sure there’s plenty to look forward to should the series continue.
Who would star inTed Lasso Season 5?
It’s too difficult to know who would appear in a fifth season ofTed Lasso without an official order, but fans can rest assured that favorites like Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, Brendan Hunt, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, and Jeremy Swift have all stuck around for Season 4, and we’d hope they’d continue to do so for a fifth. Additionally, fan favorites like Annette Badland, Phil Dunster, James Lance, and Sarah Niles all made comebacks, leaving the door open for similar returns.
When could aTed Lasso Season 5 premiere?
Ted Lasso‘s potential fifth season wouldn’t likely arrive until at least 2027 or 2028, pending renewal and progress. Season 1 debuted in August 2020, Season 2 arrived just under a year later in July 2021, and Season 3 dropped in March 2023. While Season 4 is arriving nearly three years after Season 3, the reset of storylines suggests fans won’t have to wait that long again if Season 5 were to become a reality.
