FIRST TEASER WITH JASON SUDEIKIS, BRETT GOLDSTEIN AND HANNAH WADDINGHAM IN THE BRAND NEW FOURTH SEASON OF TED LASSO COMEDY SERIES

   TED LASSO SERIES  

FIRST TEASER FROM SEASON FOUR

Although we all thought it finished for good after the rather lukewarm third season which gave an impression of the writers being quite lost in their efforts, Apple TV has decided to bring their most popular comedy series back and we can expect TED LASSO to return with the fourth season August 5th and we have the first teaser as well. The main catch: this time: Jason Sudeikis, who is back as Ted, is back to help the Richmond soccer club owner Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham) training an all female football team! Brett Goldstein as Roy and the rest of the old crew should be all back when the new season returns this summer three years after the series ended. Jack Burditt (Modern Family, 30 Rock) has been added to the creative team as a new producer. In the new season, our beloved coach leaves behind the players he'd won over to his side, and turns his attention to Richmond's women's team. The change represents his biggest challenge yet as he again hopes to turn around their fortunes, lifting them out of the second division and propelling them towards glory. Throughout the course of the season, Ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would. His son, Henry (Grant Feely) is also back, now much older, and so are Jeremy Swift (as Leslie Higgins) and Juno Temple (as Keeley Jones).
