Ted Lasso season 3 is due to start filming next month, according to star Hannah Waddingham. The Apple TV+ series is a sports-comedy-drama which follows an American college football coach who unexpectedly becomes the new manager of English Premier League team AFC Richmond. Lasso, played by Jason Sudeikis, is a classic fish-out-of-water character as the bemusing coach. The series has been a huge hit for Apple’s streaming service and has been embraced by both critics and audiences, resulting in a total of seven Emmys won by seasons 1 & 2.

Waddingham stars alongside Sudeikis in the comedy show as Rebecca Welton, who finds herself the new owner of the football club following her divorce settlement.

For her performance, Waddingham won the Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series in 2021, one of several cast members praised for their part in the popular show.
