It would appear that another Ted Lasso fan favorite is returning for the Apple TV+ show’s long-gestating fourth season.
Nick Mohammed, who went on quite the character arc as AFC Richmond assistant coach Nate Shelley, teased fans of the show as he announced rescheduled dates of his Show Pony comedy tour “for some filming I have not been able to shift for love of money.”
“I cannot say what that filming is. But it will be announced shortly,” he said in part in the X video as his Show Pony character Mr. Swallow.
Watch on Deadline
“In the meantime, I would really appreciate if people just didn’t speculate as to what they think it might be,” Mohammed continued, holding up the hand-painted “BELIEVE” sign from the show. “The last thing I want is for people to be going mad.”
After the third, and presumed final, season of Ted Lasso aired in early 2023, the series’ studio Warner Bros. Television previously picked up the options for three original cast members: Hannah Waddingham, Brett Goldstein and Jeremy Swift.
In addition to series stars and co-creators Jason Sudeikis and Brendan Hunt, co-star Juno Temple was also in negotiations to return as of August.
In October, co-creator Bill Lawrence stopped short of confirming the fourth season to Deadline, leaving that up to Sudeikis, who plays the titular happy-go-lucky soccer coach.
“Jason Sudeikis, is the voice, heart, driving factor behind the show, not only professionally, but on a personal level, that’s the dude whose life gets upended and who would be making the biggest sacrifices,” explained Lawrence. “The only sure bet in Hollywood is that nobody involved with Ted Lasso will ever, ever speak about it until Jason makes his decision of who he wants to talk to and what he wants to tell.”
Sudeikis, who co-created Ted Lasso with Lawrence, Hunt and Joe Kelly, had originally conceived the comedy as a three-season story arc and he stuck with the plan despite the series’ enormous success. But he had not shut the door to more Ted Lasso — which is why Season 3 was not labeled as final — contingent on finding the right idea. Much to fans’ delight, more than a year after the Season 3 finale, it looks like that has happened.
