Here’s everything you need to know about Ted Lasso season 2, including its release date, cast, plot and more.
Ted Lasso season 2, the heart warming soccer comedy that streams on Apple TV Plus, is finally being released later this month. The next season of the sports-themed TV show will be with us shortly and, given how much we enjoyed its first episode, it could to be a contender for 2021’s end of year TV show lists. The Apple TV original series has been a surprise smash hit among viewers and critics, and it’s already been renewed for season 3, too. That means there’ll be even more comedy capers for Ted and AFC Richmond in the future. If you want the lowdown on everything worth knowing about Ted Lasso season 2, we’ve got you covered. We’ll explain more about its confirmed launch date, cast announcements, number of episodes, official merchandise and more below. A ward of warning, though: we’ll be dealing with spoilers for the first season throughout, so ensure you’ve watched it in its entirety before reading on. Ted Lasso season 2 will launch on July 23, 2021. Season 2’s first episode will arrive on that date, with new instalments releasing every Friday after that. This is a slight change from season 1’s release schedule, and falls in line with the weekly episodic schedule employed by the likes of Disney Plus. However, some Apple TV Plus subscribers may finally have to pay for the privilege of watching content on the streamer. According to The Verge, early adopters of Apple TV Plus have been able to watch all of its content for nothing due to the streaming service’s one-year free trial offering. Per Variety,62% of all Apple TV Plus subscribers are currently making use of the streamer’s free 12-month promotional offer, which users can get from buying Apple hardware devices, including Apple Macs, iPads and iPhones. For viewers who received their offers as part of an Apple produce purchase in 2020, those free subscriptions are set to run out on July 1, 2021. Any Apple TV Plus customers who haven’t been paying for the service, then, will likely have to sign up for a $4.99 a month subscription to watch Ted Lasso season 2. Ahead of season 2’s arrival, Apple released a new official trailer for everyone’s favorite US soccer coach. It’s only 75 seconds long, but the latest video is packed with the show’s trademark humor and heart – and there’s even a hilarious scene where Ted showcases his angry side to his players once more. Check out the latest trailer below: The first trailer debuted at Apple’s 2021 spring event. As you’d expect, there are plenty of funny moments between Ted, AFC Richmond’s staff and the first-team squad, as well as some soccer-based action and other dramatic moments: There was also a smattering of new footage in a new Apple TV Plus Summer 2021 and Beyond trailer, although it didn’t reveal much more about Ted Lasso season 2’s plot: As confirmed by Collider, season 2 of Ted Lasso will be longer than season 1. Apple TV Plus picked the show up for 12 episodes instead of 10 this time, simply for story-based reasons, and each entry is expected to be between 25 and 35 minutes in length. Who doesn’t want a little bit more of Ted in their lives, eh? Spoilers for Ted Lasso season 1 follow. While we’ve seen the first few episodes of season 2, we can’t disclose what happens for spoiler reasons.
