Only four cast members from the hit Apple TV+ series Ted Lᴀsso have been confirmed to return for the surprise fourth season, and at least one other cast member will very likely be recast.
ᴅᴇᴀᴅline reported Tuesday that Gus Turner will be ‘invited to re-audition’ for the role of co-creator Jason Sudeikis’ onscreen son Henry Lᴀsso as the plum part now requires an elevated level of soccer proficiency.
The British-American 11-year-old previously portrayed Henry in 11 episodes over the first three seasons of the critically-acclaimed sports dramedy, and he even won best newcomer at the UK’s National Film Awards last year.
Regardless, audiences can next catch Gus as Big Un (Theodore) in BBC One’s upcoming four-part adaptation of William Golding’s 1954 novel, Lord of the Flies.

It’s also unclear if Andrea Anders, who played Henry’s mother Michelle, will be returning to Ted Lᴀsso.
Jason, Hannah Waddingham (Rebecca), Brett Goldstein (Roy), and Jeremy Swift (Leslie) have all been confirmed to return while Juno Temple (Keeley) ‘is still in negotiations’ to join them.
