According to Deadline, Hannah Waddingham, Jeremy Swift and Brett Goldstein have agreed to return to the hit comedy for a fourth season.
Getting the rest of the crew back together could be relatively easy, as cast members have repeatedly said they would like to reprise their roles, if given the chance to do so.
The publication reports that writers have already begun working on what a new season would entail.
By the end of the third season, Lasso (Sudeikis) had returned to his son and ex-wife in Kansas, while Coach Beard (Hunt) remained in the United Kingdom.
The show won 13 Primetime Emmy Awards during its successful run.
The season three finale was never considered the end of the show, allowing fans to dream of more adventures in the countryside and that seems to be exactly what they’ll eventually get.
Sudeikis has kept a low profile since the end of season three.
The Saturday Night Live alum has been doing voice work on the TV series Hit-Monkey and the upcoming animated film Hit Pig and The Angry Birds Movie 3.
Waddingham’s career has expanded with roles in the summer hit The Fall Guy with Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.

Ted Lasso won 13 Primetime Emmy Awards over its three seasons.
She also recently received an Emmy nomination for her voice work as the goddess Deliria in the animated series Krapopolis.
“Never in a million years would I have thought my first foray into voice acting would land me an Emmy nomination!” she wrote on social media. “I love playing this vile, satisfying, funny, flirtatious goddess, Deliria, on @krapopollis on the @fox network. Thank you so much for recognizing me amongst these, quite frankly, voice acting titans! Xx.”
Goldstein, who was one of the writers and executive producers of Ted Lasso, is also one of the creative forces behind the Emmy-nominated Shrinking, starring Jason Segal and Harrison Ford.
The second season of The Shrinking will debut on October 16.
