Ted Lassois recasting an important character for season 4. After much speculation about whether the hit Apple TV+ series would continue,Ted Lassoseason 4was recently confirmed to be moving forward.Jason Sudeikis is returning to reprise his roleas the optimistic and inspiring Ted, who will be coaching a women’s soccer team this time. Another star from the previous seasons, Juno Temple, is in talks to reprise her role of Keeley Jones. The new season will begin in Kansas, where Ted reunited with his family at the end of season 3.
As perDeadline,Ted Lassoseason 4 is now looking to recast Ted’s son, Henry. The recasting is reportedly due to Henry’s soccer talents being a key part of his storyline in the upcoming season. The actor who played Henry in prior seasons, Gus Turner, is expected to be invited to audition, so he could potentially continue playing the character depending on the result of the auditions. It has not yet been confirmed whether Andrea Anders, who plays Ted’s wife Michelle, will be reprising her role in season 4.
What This Means For Ted Lasso Season 4
Henry Will Be Integral To The Show’s Next Chapter
Henry being recast teases that he will have a much larger role in season 4than he did in the previous seasons. With Ted coaching the A.F.C. Richmond team in the U.K. and Henry still living in Kansas, the majority of their scenes took place via FaceTime conversations. That will seemingly no longer be the case, with the father-and-son duo now poised to share more in-person scenes together. Whether Henry stays in Kansas or goes to the U.K. with Ted is unconfirmed, but the recasting makes the latter more likely.
10 Ted Lasso Storylines That Still Need To Be Resolved
Ted Lasso season 3 was supposed to be the end of the sports comedy, yet another installment may be on the horizon, and these storylines must continue.
AfterTed Lassoseason 3’s endingsees Ted living with his son again, it seems that season 4 is dedicated to further exploring their relationship. Much of that relationship is set to revolve around Henry’s soccer journey. While Ted will be busy coaching a women’s team, hecould also coach a team that Henry plays on. There is comedic potential in seeing how Ted approaches coaching adult women as opposed to how he coaches teenage boys.
Henry’s Recasting Is Already Answering One Major Question
Henry having a bigger role related to playing soccer partially answers theTed Lassoseason 4 questionof how the titular coach’s family will be incorporated into the new season, although what this means for Michelle remains unclear.I wouldprefer Turner continuing to play Henry and for Anders to continue playing Michelle, so the show can naturally build on the family’s previously established dynamics. With Sudeikis at the forefront ofTed Lassoseason 4, hopefully he and the show’s creative team will continue the story of Ted and his family in the best way possible.
