Last week, Apple TV+ confirmed what had been rumored for months: Ted Lasso will return for season 4. A handful of original cast members are already set to come back, including series co-creator Jason Sudeikis as Ted Lasso himself. However, one key supporting role close to Ted is being recast for the fourth season.

According to Deadline, the series is now searching for a young actor to play Teds son, Henry, who was previously portrayed by Gus Turner across the first three seasons. Because Henry lived in the United States with his mother, he only had limited screentime in the shows original run. For season 4, Henry is being given a larger role now that his father is back in Kansas. Deadlines report indicates that Henry has become a skilled soccer player at only 12 years old. Hes also inherited some of his fathers quirks.

Its also currently unclear if Andrea Anders will reprise her role as Henrys mother and Teds ex-wife Michelle.

The options for that trio were picked up last year, well before the shows return was official. Shortly after that happened, Sudeikis shared that he felt good about the series then-potential comeback.

Juno Temple is reportedly in talks to rejoin the cast as well, as is Brendan Hunt, one of the other co-creators on the series. Hunt has already been involved with the fourth season as a writer and an executive producer, but he doesnt currently have an acting deal to reprise his role as Coach Beard.

Apple TV+ hasnt set a date for Ted Lasso season 4 yet.
