The fourth season of the popular Apple TV+ show Ted Lasso has officially begun filming. Filming has started in Kansas City, Missouri, and will move to London. The cast will include both returning fan-favorite actors and fascinating new ones, which will give the Emmy-winning comedy a new direction.
Lasso Returns: A New Chapter Begins
Ted Lasso Season 4 is now in the works, and filming has already begun in Kansas City, which is where star Jason Sudeikis grew up. This is a big change from the show’s prior London setting, which suggests that the story will go in a different path after Ted Lasso returns to the US at the end of Season 3. Later on, the show will move to London to film further scenes.
Ted’s toughest task this season will be coaching a women’s football team in Richmond that is in the second division.
The story will look at the ideas of taking risks and jumping before looking.
