The trailer already gave us a little insight into what we can expect but fans will undoubtedly be pleased at the reunion of some of Apple TV's most beloved characters.
But the new season also marks the introduction of a batch of new faces as we get acquainted with the new team, of which Tanya Reynolds's assistant coach Alice is a key part of.
Teasing what's to come with Alice, Brendan Hunt told Radio Times: "What was incredible about Tanya was that she didn't shake it up; like she just fit right in. Especially the scenes where we're triangulated at our desks and bantering with each other. Those were far and away the most fun scenes to shoot this season."
With episodes being released weekly, we'll just have to tune in each Wednesday to find out more about how things will unfold not just for our newbies, but also Ted (Jason Sudeikis), Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham), Keeley (Juno Temple) and Roy (Brett Goldstein).
For the eagle-eyed fans among us, there are some cast members that haven't (as yet) been slated to appear but for more about those that appeared through seasons one to three, scroll down. Read on for everything you need to know about the cast of Ted Lasso season 4.
