After more than a year of speculation, Apple TV+ has ordered a fourth season of its Emmy-winning comedy Ted Lasso. The pickup comes after co-creator and star Jason Sudeikis closed a deal to reprise his role as the title character, the manager of the fictional AFC Richmond soccer club in London.

Coach Lasso's words have new meaning now that Apple TV Plus announced Ted Lasso season 4 has been greenlit. On Friday, the company shared the series will return to the streaming service, with star Jason Sudeikis reprising his role as the tenderhearted coach.

After a season 3 finale that left open plenty of possibilities for a return, it’s now confirmed: Ted Lasso is coming back. The Apple TV Plus sitcom is getting a fourth season, though it appears to be still fairly early in development.
