Apple TV’s beloved comedy Ted Lasso is gearing up for a bigger presence in 2027. Season 4 will continue rolling out episodes through October 7. Meanwhile, new details suggest Season 5 is officially moving ahead, with production tentatively beginning in London in January and hopes that the new season will arrive by summer 2027. Though Apple hasn’t confirmed renewal, insiders say things are aligning for a comeback.
What We Know So Far
After Season 3 ended in 2023, many wondered whether Ted Lasso had run its course. Cast and fans alike were split on the show’s future. But whispers of continuation never fully went away — and now, with production set to resume in a few months, momentum is unmistakable. The update comes from a series of posts on X by a reliable entertainment commentator who has a track record with Apple TV stories. These posts claim that filming for Season 5 is provisionally scheduled to begin in London in January.

If everything stays on schedule, the new season could drop by summer 2027. That assumes a steady production pace and no major hiccups — though early reports cheekily mention moustache growth as one of the things to watch out for.

With filming planned to start in January 2027 and a hoped-for summer release, Ted Lasso is clearly poised for another strong run. The fourth season still has several installments to go before its October 7 close, which may help build anticipation for the official confirmation of Season 5’s renewal.

What this means: The timeline suggests that Ted Lasso remains a key part of Apple TV’s strategy. Expect marketing ramp-ups next spring, casting updates, and likely confirmation this fall.
