Multiple trade outlets have reported that Warner Bros. Television is taking steps to continue the hit Apple TV+ series after the Season 3 finale left the fate of the show uncertain.

According to Deadline, which was first to report the news, Warner Bros. Television has picked up the options on three main cast members represented by U.K. performers union Equity: Hannah Waddingham (Rebecca Walton), Jeremy Swift (Leslie Higgins) and Brett Goldstein (Roy Kent).

Representatives for Warner Bros. Television, Apple TV+ and several cast members did not immediately respond Sunday to requests for comment.

Up next, the studio is reportedly expected to approach actors represented by U.S. performers union SAG-AFTRA, including Juno Temple (Keeley Jones), Brendan Hunt (Coach Beard) and Ted Lasso himself, Jason Sudeikis.

So what exactly is the plan here? What would a season 4 storyline look like? Absolutely love the show so I really hope this isn't going to kill it.

I love Ted Lasso season one and two, but I stopped watching during 3.
Will not watch a fourth season. I have to make a separate subscription to that streaming service whichever one it was, so it’s not worth it.

I'm not typically one to encourage more subscriptions, but just fyi Apple TV has some of the best shows. In addition to Ted Lasso the following are some of the best shows I've seen in the last decade:

Severance
Pachinko
Shrinking
The Afterparty

Yes, this...and compared to others AppleTV is affordable at least (but I am NOT telling anyone what to do with their money). Shrinking is such a good show. Also, add Bad Monkey to the list. Loving it.

I'll throw in 'Silo', 'Foundation', 'For All Mankind, 'Monarch', 'Servant', 'Slow Horses' and a seconding for 'Pachinko'. A lot of good series with elevated levels of production design.

And don't forget the recent addition of the Director's Cut version of Ridley Scott's 'Napoleon'! (Okay, maybe we can look past that one).
