Ted Lasso season 2 will be longer than season 1, star Juno Temple (who plays Keeley Jones on the show) has revealed. While Season 1 had 10 episodes, Apple TV Plus picked up the series for more episodes this time around, according to the actress, which Apple later confirmed. Season 2 will consist of 12 episodes in total. The reason? The Season 2 storyline called for it, according to Apple. This comes from Collider, who spoke to Temple about the show, which has now begun filming amid a pandemic in the UK. "Well, they've happily picked us up for a few more episodes this season. So it's a longer shoot because we shoot more." Collider later confirmed with Apple that season 2 will be 12 episodes long, with the company telling the outlet that the additional episodes are necessary for story reasons. Ted Lasso has received critical acclaim, having recently been nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Television Series - Musical or Comedy, and actor Jason Sudeikis is also nominated for Best Actor in the comedy category. It is one of the most acclaimed Apple TV Plus originals to date. Probably more episodes seem obvious. It's unclear when Ted Lasso season 2 will be released, but we hope to see it this year at some point.
